Research Project: Invasive Ant Biology and Control
Published: Mar, 18 Oct 2016, 22:18Last updated: Lun, 10 Jul 2017, 16:36
The objectives of the project are:
- Develop advanced integrated pest management methods by improving the understanding of fire ant biology and by expanding biologically-based control of fire ants through detailed genetic, behavioral, physiological, chemical, and ecological studies of fire ants and their natural enemies.
- Develop advanced integrated pest management methods by improving the understanding of the biology of invasive pest ants other than fire ants and by expanding options for their management and surveillance.
- Determine impacts of climate and climate change on potential distributions of invasive ants.
