Anotace knihy

This timely volume presents a comprehensive overview of the behavioral and physiological mechanisms underlying insect feeding. The single source for up-to-date information on the subject, it features contributions from the most authoritative scientists in the field worldwide. §Taking an accessible approach focusing on the sequential stages of the feeding process, Regulatory Mechanisms in Insect Feeding explores the principles regulating feeding, and it offers information necessary for the development of more effective and environmentally safe methods to control the feeding of pest insects. The authors incorporate a spectrum of information in areas ranging from neurophysiology to insect control. §An inclusive reference that reflects recent expansion and advances in the field, this book §considers the problems encountered by insects when feeding on different types of food, as well as their adaptations for dealing with the problems §introduces the cyclic nature of feeding activity and its components and provides the framework for the discussion of various control mechanisms §discusses the underlying regulatory mechanisms of feeding in both the short and long terms in insects with a diversity of feeding habits §synthesizes concepts and details of the basic mechanisms underlying insect feeding behavior that are essential for the development of pest management methods. §Regulatory Mechanisms in Insect Feeding is the ideal text for graduate courses in entomology and zoology with a special focus on insect behavior, physiology, neurobiology, and control. It is also a valuable resource for ecologists interested in insect-plant and insect-animal interactions, for scientists concerned with the mechanisms behind the physiology and behavior of feeding, and for those working in crop protection and pest management.
