Journal ArticleDOI
Colorado Potato Beetle Resistance to Insecticides
TL;DR: Still limited understanding of beetle biology, its flexible life history, and grower reluctance to adopt some of the resistance management techniques create impediments to successful resistance management.
Book ChapterDOI
Differential Migration Revisited
TL;DR: Sibley and Monroe as discussed by the authors studied the effect of differential migration in birds, in which distance traveled differs between portions of a population for a specific species of a bird during migration.
Journal ArticleDOI
Correcting Biased Estimates of Dispersal and Survival Due to Limited Study Area: Theory and an Application Using Wrentits
TL;DR: In this paper, a method that corrects for the underestimate of dispersal and survival inherent in studies conducted within a finite area is derived, where each dispersal event is weighted by the inverse of the probability of observing that event, calculated by dividing the observable dispersal events of a given distance by all possible distributions of that distance.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Red Queen in a potato field: integrated pest management versus chemical dependency in Colorado potato beetle control.
Andrei Alyokhin,David Mota-Sanchez,Mitchell B. Baker,William E. Snyder,Sandra Menasha,Mark E. Whalon,Galen P. Dively,Wassem F. Moarsi +7 more
TL;DR: A review is given of four case studies from across the United States to demonstrate the importance of using IPM for sustainable management of a highly adaptable insect pest.
Journal ArticleDOI
Incremental costs and benefits shape natal dispersal: theory and example with hemilepistus reaumuri
Mitchell B. Baker,Steven Rao +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a dynamic programming model of settling behavior using parameters estimated from a field study of dispersal in desert isopods, Hemilepistus reaumuri, which walk up to thousands of meters before settling in new or already established burrows each spring.
