As all introduced populations start small, much of our research also applies to conservation of species at risk. Currently, I am using Tribolium beetles as a model system to conduct experimental invasions, and study rescue processes. We also are studying invasions of Drosophila suzukii<\/em> and biological control of tansy ragwort and tamarisk.[\/vc_column_text][vc_custom_heading text=”Courses I Teach” font_container=”tag:h3|font_size:25|text_align:left|color:%231e4d2b” google_fonts=”font_family:Roboto%20Slab%3A100%2C300%2Cregular%2C700|font_style:400%20regular%3A400%3Anormal” css_animation=”flipInX”][vc_tta_tabs][vc_tta_section title=”BSPM 500″ tab_id=”1520348642752-299d56cb-ba48″][vc_column_text]Fundamentals of\u00a0 Ag.
