Chemical Ecology of Insect Parasitoids
Insect parasitoids, in the course of their evolutionary history, have developed many impressive ways to use chemical signals to communicate with and sense the different protagonists in their environments (i.e., conspecifics, their hosts and the plants on which their hosts are living). Unravelling the evolutionary meaning of such chemical communication networks can give new insights into the ecology of these important insects and especially on how to improve their use for the control of noxious pests in biological control programmes. Written by a team of leading international specialists, the book comprehensively covers current knowledge of t…

Über den Autor
Eric Wajnberg is a research scientist working at the Institut National de la Recherche Agronomique (INRA), Sophia Antipolis, France. He is a population biologist specializing in behavioural ecology, population genetics and statistical modelling. He is also an expert in biological control, with almost 30 years experience working on insect parasitoids. Stefano Colazza is based at the University of Palermo, Italy. He is a specialist in infochemicals and behavioural ecology of plant, insect herbivores, and insect parasitoid interactions, with a special interest in the chemical ecology of plant volatile organic compounds in a tri-trophic context. He has been involved in these research areas for over 30 years.
