Mechanistic Understanding of Neurobehavioral Effects of Insecticides on the Larvae of Zebrafish (Danio rerio)

Sarah-Katharina Könemann

Due to conservation of neuronal functioning across phyla, molecular targets of insecticides are similar in insects and vertebrates. Insecticides thus pose a risk to aquatic vertebrates, such as fish, and potentially cause neurotoxic effects. Although these ...

Simple models for biological control of crop pests and their application

Luz Vianey Vela Arevalo

In this work, we construct simple models in terms of differential equations for the dynamics of pest populations and their management using biological pest control. For the first model used, the effect of the biological control is modelled by a function of ...
