Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Integrated pest management (IPM) is an applied discipline in entomology that aims to illuminate the population dynamics and outbreak mechanism of agricultural insect pests to propose a theory for early warning and sustainable management. This will be available for the sustainable management of agricultural insect pests and reduced use of chemical insecticides in China. The scope includes but is not limited to pest biology as it relates to pest management, biological control, biopesticides and integrated pest management (IPM), and outbreak mechanisms. Articles related to pest control are welcome, and the article type can be review or research.
