Entomology
We perform basic and applied research on insect biology/ecology and chemical ecology. The main research interests of the lab include plant- insect, insect- insect and insect- plant- microbes interactions, for the development of novel insect control methods and sustainable crop management, in the terms of integrated pest management (IPM).
- Headspace volatile collection.
- Insect behavioral assays.
- Development of insecticide resistance.
- Population dynamics and spatial distribution of insects.
- Development of insect trapping.
- Development of Integrated Pest Management systems.
- Biological control of pests.
- Application of mating disruption techniques.
- Management of invasive species and insect vectors of human and animal diseases.
- Insects for feed and food.
- Insect rearing rooms / incubator, greenhouse, pop up cages, rearing trays.
- Volatile collection system / olfactometers / mini airbrush.
- Stereoscopes, analytical scales, freezers.
- Insect traps (delta, rocket, pitfall, funnel etc.).
