More Modeling

The Fundamentals of Stored Product Entomology book cites 42 modeling studies in Table 7.3 in book. These studies model the population growth of 14 pest species and 4 natural enemy species. The models simulate environmental conditions and insect populations in farm and elevator bins, food processing plants and grain marketing system, insect damage to grain, insect resistance to insecticides and pest management using aeration, fumigation, host plant resistance and residual insecticides. The following 75 references add models for the stored product species, Acarus siro, Cheyletus eruditus, Corcyra cephalonica and Plodia interpunctella, Trogoderma granarium, and aflatoxin production by molds, rat populations and use of models in cereal food chain. Models for the effect of high and low temperatures on insect survival and hermetic storage on germination, and additional models for environmental conditions during storage, aeration and fumigation are reported in the following references.
