Review
"Fruit Fly Pests is the definitive work on fruit flies, containing 100
contributions from experts all over the world."
|
 |
A book of national and international importance, Fruit Fly Pests is an
exhaustive compendium of information (with data provided by more than 100 contributors)
that will appeal to a wide variety of readers. With huge losses experienced annually from
fruit fly devastation, information on these high-profile insects is important to
commercial fruit and vegetable growers, marketing exporters, government regulatory
agencies, and the scientific community. Fruit flies impose a considerable resource tax,
and the ones who suffer range from shippers to end users. The demand for world-wide plant
protection requires up-to-date research information. This book meets that need.
This book contains the proceedings from the most recent International Symposium on
Fruit Flies of Economic Importance. Here you will find the major presentations given
at the symposium, with an added feature -- overviews from experts on topics not covered
directly by participants in the symposium, filling in gaps in the current literature. The
resulting publication is the most up-to-date and readable text to be found anywhere on the
subject of tephritids. |
