متن کاملInsect Growth Regulators for Insect Pest Control*
Insecticides with growth regulating properties (IGR) may adversely affect insects by regulating or inhibiting specific biochemical pathways or processes essential for insect growth and development. Some insects exposed to such compounds may die due to abnormal regulation of hormone-mediated cell or organ development. Other insects may die either from a prolonged exposure at the developmental st...
متن کاملOptimal control problem on insect pest populations
In this article we present a model of insect infestation of grape vines and consider the optimal control of the pest through the use of egg pesticides. We show existence and uniqueness and present the results of some numerical simulations.

Fifty years of sustained struggle against harmful insects using synthetic and oil-derivative molecules has produced perverse secondary effects (mammalian toxicity, insect resistance and ecological hazards). The diversification of the approaches inherent in IPM is n...
