Jinjun Wang (Edited By) Professor Jinjun Wang has a Ph.D. in Entomology and is a professor in Southwest University, China. He was appointed as a scientist in citrus insect pest control in the China Agricultural Research System (CARS) by the Chinese Ministry of Agriculture in 2007. He is also a leading scientist of the "Innovation Research Team of Fundamental Research on Sustainable Management of Citrus Major Pests" approved by the Chinese Ministry of Education in 2009. Currently, his research focuses on the development of integrated management strategies for insect pest control primarily in citrus. His research interests include both principles-level fundamental questions as well as practical applied questions geared toward providing solutions to major problems facing a diversity of agricultural commodities. To date, he has published more than 100 peer-reviewed papers in journals such as PNAS, Annual Review of Entomology, Insect Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, BMC Biology, Insect Molecular Biology, Pest Management Science, Journal of Insect Physiology, and other internationally well-known journals.Huai Liu (Edited By) Professor Huai Lui has a Ph.D. in Entomology and is a professor at Southwest University, China. He is the head of College of Plant Protection. He is also a leading scientist of the 'Key Laboratory of Entomology and Pest Control Engineering approved by the Chongqing Municipal Science and Technology Commission. His main research focuses on insect/mite population ecology and pest biological control. He is interested in phenotypic plasticity and adaptive mechanisms of predatory natural enemies under different or crossed environmental stress. To date, he has published more than 50 peer-reviewed papers in journals such as in Journal of Food and Agriculture Chemistry, Pest Management Science, Insect Science, Biological Control, Crop Protection, BioControl, Journal of Economic Entomology, and other internationally well-known journals.Ingeborg Menzler-Hokkanen (Edited By, Series Edited By) Ingeborg Menzler-Hokkanen is at the Stockbridge School of Agriculture, University of Massachusetts, Amherst, USA. Previously she worked over 20 years as researcher at the Department of Agricultural Sciences, University of Helsinki. She has an MSc-degree in agricultural economics from Göttingen University, Germany; MSc-degree in agricultural economics from Cornell University, USA; and a PhD from the Helsinki School of Economics. After a solid research and publication record within economics, she has focused on the socioeconomic and ecological aspects of plant biotechnology, and of pest and pollinator management.Hongbo Jiang (Edited By) Professor Hongbo Jiang has a Ph.D. in Entomology and is a professor in Southwest University, China. He got his Ph. D degree at Southwest University, China in 2010. Later, He joined Dr. Yoonseong Park's lab in Kansas State University as a postdoctoral researcher focusing on the neurophysiology of the insect behavior. He returned to Southwest University as a faculty member in 2014. Since then, He has been interested in the molecular physiology of the behaviors in the oriental fruit fly (Bactrocera dorsalis), which is a destructive invasive insect pest for the vegetable and fruit industry worldwide. He is currently involved in the projects for exploring the molecular mechanism of the olfaction mediated behaviors such as plant volatile mediated foraging, mating and oviposition. To date, he has published more than 60 peer-reviewed papers in journals such as in PNAS, Insect Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, Journal of Agriculture and Food Chemistry, Journal of Insect Physiology and other internationally well-known journals.Heikki M.T. Hokkanen (Series Edited By) Heikki MT Hokkanen is currently an Adjunct Professor at the Stockbridge School of Agriculture, University of Massachusetts, Amherst, USA. He is professor Emeritus of agricultural zoology at the Faculty of Agriculture and Forestry, University of Helsinki. He holds a Lic. Phil. degree in ecology and natural resource management (1978. Univ. Jyväskylä, Finland), and a PhD in applied entomology (1983, Cornell University, Ithaca, NY, USA). His main interest and focus of work has been on integrated control of pests, including trap cropping and all aspects of biological control. In recent years his interests have covered pollinators, and plant-derived bioactive compounds for plant protection applications.
