Price C, Harris W, Forbes E, Walters K
Insects . 2024 Oct; 15(10). PMID: 39452395
in arable fields display spatio-temporally stable slug patches that have been well documented under typical soil moisture conditions. The effect of abnormally high soil moisture on slug patch stability, however,...

Sci Rep . 2022 Feb; 12(1):2274. PMID: 35145135
Factors and processes determining heterogeneous ('patchy') population distributions in natural environments have long been a major focus in ecology. Existing theoretical approaches proved to be successful in explaining vegetation patterns....

Apidologie . 2022 Jan; 52(6):1033-1047. PMID: 35068597
The performance of micro-colonies fed five diets differing in pollen species composition and level of nine essential amino acids (EAA; leucine, lysine, valine, arginine, isoleucine, phenylalanine, threonine, histidine, methionine) was...

Forbes E, Back M, Brooks A, Petrovskaya N, Petrovskii S, Pope T, et al.
Insects . 2020 Dec; 12(1). PMID: 33375590
Exploitation of heterogenous distributions of , in arable fields by targeting molluscicide applications toward areas with higher slug densities, relies on these patches displaying sufficient spatio-temporal stability. Regular sampling of...

Ellis J, Petrovskaya N, Forbes E, Walters K, Petrovskii S
Sci Rep . 2020 Oct; 10(1):17970. PMID: 33087800
We report the results of an experiment on radio-tracking of individual grey field slugs in an arable field and associated data modelling designed to investigate the effect of slug population...

Petrovskaya N, Forbes E, Petrovskii S, Walters K
Insects . 2018 Mar; 9(1). PMID: 29495513
Studies addressing many ecological problems require accurate evaluation of the total population size. In this paper, we revisit a sampling procedure used for the evaluation of the abundance of an...

Thompson H, Wilkins S, Harkin S, Milner S, Walters K
Pest Manag Sci . 2014 Aug; 71(7):946-50. PMID: 25132051
Background: The objective of this study was to quantify whether the presence of three different neonicotinoid insecticides (imidacloprid, thiamethoxam or clothianidin) in sucrose solution results in antifeedant effects in individual...

Pest Manag Sci . 2012 Apr; 68(9):1289-95. PMID: 22517790
Background: Predatory mites (Amblyseius swirskii Athias-Henriot, Typhlodromips montdorensis Schicha, Neoseiulus cucumeris (Oudemans) and Iphiseius degenerans Berlese) were investigated for their potential to act as control agents for Thrips palmi Karny....
