Deciphering the Rosetta Stone of Insect Chemical Communication
Imagine a world with an abundance of pesticide-free produce, no more flies and yellow jackets at picnics, and— more importantly—no diseases transmitted by mosquitoes and other arthropods. Welcome to Utopia! In the real world, however, chemical ecologists are pushing the envelope towards these ambitious goals. They are working diligently to decipher the “Rosetta Stone” of insect chemical communi...
متن کاملTropical Insect Chemical Ecology
In this chapter we describe the current state of tropical insect chemical ecology in Latin America with the aim of stimulating the use of this important tool for future generations of technicians and professionals workers in insect pest management. Sex pheromones of tropical insects that have been identified to date are mainly used for detection and population monitoring. Another strategy terme...
متن کاملSecure Communication in Shotgun Cellular Systems
In this paper, we analyze the secure connectivity in Shotgun cellular systems (SCS: Wireless communication systems with randomly placed base stations) by Poisson intrinsically secure communication graph (IS-graph), i.e., a random graph which describes the connections that are secure over a network. For a base-station in SCS, a degree of secure connections is determined over two channel models: ...
متن کاملAlternatives to Chemical Control of Insect Pests
In 2011, practitioners and advocates of Integrated Pest Management (IPM) find themselves addressing agricultural, societal, and political pressures worldwide resulting from human population growth. This growth brings simultaneous burdens of sustaining a steady food supply; these include preventing losses from pests, dealing with increased human global travel, which in turn intensifies opportuni...
متن کاملThe public world of insect vibrational communication.
Food webs involving plants, herbivorous insects and their predators account for 75% of terrestrial biodiversity (Price 2002). Within the abundant arthropod community on plants, myriad ecological and social interactions depend on the perception and production of plant-borne mechanical vibrations (Hill 2008). Study of ecological relationships has shown, for example, that termites monitor the vibr...
