Plant and insect invasions and novel host use- Ian Pearse

Active
By National Science Foundation/USGS Internship Opportunities October 16, 2018

Plants and insects comprise a large portion of problematic invasive species. The success of these invasions largely depends on the outcomes of plant-insect interactions in which plants that escape herbivores may be more successful invaders, and herbivores that find adequate hosts have the opportunity to establish. This project will explore the dynamics of introduced plant or insect populations, or
