1 ENTOMOLOGY Tel: ; Fax: URL: STAFF Professors Emeriti: Gerson, U., Ph.D. Lensky, Y., Ph.D. Applebaum, S.W., Ph.D. 1 Professors: Cohen, E., Ph.D. (Head of Department) Associate Professor: Yuval, B., Ph.D. Senior Lecturer: Lecturers: Coll, M., Ph.D. Heifetz, Y., Ph.D. Shafir, S., Ph.D. INTRODUCTION The Department of Entomology is devoted to the study of insects. A multidisciplinary biological approach (at the molecular, physiological, behavioral and ecological levels) is brought to bear on economically significant species of insects and mites. Accordingly, research and teaching focus on pests of cultivated plants and their natural enemies (i.e., parasites, predators and pathogens); on biological control, chemical control and pesticide toxicology; on apiculture and pollination; and on plant and insect virology. The research program of the Department covers the following main areas: Behavioral ecology: Nutritional ecology and sexual biology of flies. Insect physiology: Physiology and endocrinology of insect reproduction; physiological ecology of diapause, migration and phase transition. Insect reproduction: Molecular mechanisms in insect reproduction and aging. Insect ecology and integrated pest management (IPM): Population biology and population dynamics of insect pests and their natural enemies; insect-plant interactions. Pest control and pesticide toxicology: Resistance mechanisms; chitin as target for pest control; insect pest control by entomopathogenic fungi, 1 Morris and Helen Mauerberger Professor of Agricultural Entomology 26
2 photostabilization of biocontrol agents. Apiculture: Biology of the honey bee and pollination ecology; foraging and rewards in social insects. Plant virology: Isolation and characterization of antiviral factors of plant origin; plant-virus replication; regulation of viral resistance; transgenic plants expressing foreign genes.
