The book explores the biology, phylogeny, reproductive behavior, diet, predatory stink bugs, interactions between herbivores-plants and natural enemies, pheromone monitoring, and communication signals of Pentatomidae species, with potential technologies for field crop pest management. Format: Paperback / softback Length: 276 pages Publication date: 31 March 2021 Publisher: Taylor & Francis Ltd The Pentatomidae species are the subject of this book, which provides an overview of their biology, phylogeny, reproductive behavior, main plants used in their diet and nutritional exigencies, predatory stinkbugs, interactions between herbivores-plants and natural enemies, use of pheromone for monitoring phytophagous populations, and chemical and vibrational communication signals. It also presents possible technologies to be applied in field crops for pest management that could be developed as the basis of the interplay of stink bug communication signals.Pentatomidae Species OverviewThis book presents an overview of the Pentatomidae species, covering their biology, phylogeny and reproductive behavior, main plants used in their diet and their nutritional exigencies, predatory stinkbugs, interactions between herbivores-plants and natural enemies, use of pheromone for monitoring phytophagous populations, and chemical and vibrational communication signals.
