87th Annual Western Orchard Pest and Disease Management Conference. 9-11 January 2013, Portland, Oregon, USA

摘要

Staff of the IPCL participated in the 87th Orchard Pest and Disease Management Conference that was held in Portland, Oregon, USA from 9-11 January 2013, and delivered an invited presentation at the request of organizers on the principles of area-wide integrated pest management (AW-IPM) and the sterile insect technique, as the SIT is very often missing from the agenda of this annual meeting. The conference contained sessions on programme implementation, monitoring, biocontrol, invasive species, chemical control, biology and mating disruption.
