Symposia Biologica Hungarica 39. - Insects-Plants '89 (1991)

INSECTS-PLANTS 89 Keli ted by Á. SZENTESI, T. JERMY (Symposia Biologica Hungarica 39) At the seventh international symposium of this series 135 participants from 22 countries dis­cussed problems of host finding, host accep­tance, nutrition and sensory physiology, host­­related behaviour, ecology, evolution, etc. of phytophagous insects. The answers to the above questions were also multidisciplinary: given by behavioural geneticists, evolutionary ecologists, electrophysiologists, and not least by students of practice dealing with biological control and plant resistance to insects. While a treasure of extremely valuable new knowledge is presented in this volume, it is also clearly demonstrated what further questions are to be answered for a full understanding of the inti­mate connection between an insect and a plant.
