Using Chemical Ecology to Enhance Weed Biological Control [PDF]

Insects, 2021
In agricultural systems, chemical ecology and the use of semiochemicals have become critical components of integrated pest management. The categories of semiochemicals that have been used include sex pheromones, aggregation pheromones, and plant volatile

Reverse chemical ecology approach for the identification of an oviposition attractant for Culex quinquefasciatus. [PDF]

Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A, 2018
Pheromones and other semiochemicals play a crucial role in today's integrated pest and vector management strategies. These semiochemicals are typically discovered by bioassay-guided approaches.

Exploiting chemical ecology to manage hyperparasitoids in biological control of arthropod pests. [PDF]

Pest Manag Sci, 2020
Insect hyperparasitoids are fourth trophic level organisms that commonly occur in terrestrial food webs, yet they are relatively understudied. These top‐carnivores can disrupt biological pest control by suppressing the populations of their parasitoid ...

Chemical Ecology of Nematodes

CHIMIA, 2022
Nematodes represent the most abundant group of metazoans on earth. They utilize diverse chemicals to interact with con-specific and hetero-specific organisms, and are also impacted by compounds produced by other interacting organisms.

A reverse chemical ecology approach to explore wood natural durability. [PDF]

Microb Biotechnol, 2020
The natural durability of wood species, defined as their inherent resistance to wood‐destroying agents, is a complex phenomenon depending on many biotic and abiotic factors.
