Late pest control in determinate tomato cultivars

Comparisons of in vitro propagation of tomato cultivars

Sustainability of transgenic insecticidal cultivars: integrating pest genetics and ecology.

This review examines potential impacts of transgenic cultivars on insect population dynamics and evolution. Experience with classically bred, insecticidal cultivars has demonstrated that a solid understanding of both the target insect's ecology and the cultivar's performance under varied field conditions will be essential for predicting area-wide effects of transgenic cultivars on pest and natu...

Optimal Control in Discrete Pest Control Models

We use discrete time models to represent the dynamics of two interacting populations, a “valuable” population and a “pest” population. We investigate optimal control in the form of decreasing the growth rate of the “pest” population with the goal of maximizing the “valuable” population while minimizing the cost of the control. We compare different types of growth functions for the “valuable” po...
