My interests are primarily in insect
pest management and insect-crop
interactions. I am focusing my research
efforts on examining the population
ecology and crop loss assessment
of a complex of polyphagous insects
that feed on leafy vegetables and
melons. Related research interests
include: pesticide application technology
and lepidopterous feeding behavior.
