Microevolution in IPM
Part I
Links Between Ecology and Biological Control Are Strong
Links Between Evolution and Biological Control Are Less Developed
MACROEVOLUTION
Not Sure What the Role of Microevolution Is
• Genetics of insect introductions.
• Formulation of hypotheses.
• Formulation of models.
• Genetic surveys.
• Evolution of natural enemy-pest interactions.
Some of Things That Have Been Done:
Vital Evolutionary Issues in Biological Control
• Local adaptation.
• Adaptive evolution.
• The role of bottlenecks.
• The evolution of host-ranges.
• Evolution of resistance.
Evolution
Change in allele frequencies over time.
Genetic Drift
Bottleneck Founder effect
Selection
Gene Flow
Next Class
We will pose some challenging questions!
Good luck with your power point presentation preparation.
Send themes to me by Thursday!
Do not forget that the presentations will start on Nov 29th!
