Douglas G. Pfeiffer Teaching activities. entomology 4254, Insect Pest Management . Undergraduate.Spring semesters, starting in 2004. 3 cr. (2005 CRN 12404 w/ Monday lab, http://everest.ento.vt.edu/Fruitfiles/DougBio.html
Extractions: dgpfeiff at vt.edu Dr. Pfeiffer is interested in integrated pest management in tree fruit and small fruit systems. In recent years, research has centered in two areas of activity, mating disruption for lepidopteran pests, and insect/plant interactions. In orchards, mating disruption has been used against codling moth, the leafroller complex, dogwood borer, lesser peachtree borer and oriental fruit moth. In vineyards, this approach was used for grape berry moth. Interactions between pests and host plants has been used to help develop economic injury levels for European red mite, spirea and apple aphids, and white apple leafhopper on apple, and Japanese beetle and European red mite on grape. Dr. Pfeiffer is also interested in biogeography of the strains of plum curculio.

Extractions: Athens, GA 30602-2603 phone: email: rmatthew@uga.edu My research interests center on the behavior of wasps. Both field and laboratory approaches, as appropriate to particular questions, are employed. In general, the research questions of greatest interest to me tend to be ecologically and evolutionarily oriented. One focus is the evolution of social behavior . Recent studies have provided new insights into population structure and kinship on the primitively social sphecid wasps. I also study various solitary stem-nesting and ground-nesting sphecid wasps. An enduring research interest is Australian wasps, both social and solitary. Projects include population genetics of the invasive European wasp (Vespula germanica), and the natural history of giant mason wasps (Abispa spp.) and their nest associates. Another major dimension of both my research and instructional effort has been a commitment to working directly with K-12 teachers to empower them to feel more competent and confident about incorporating insects into their curriculum. As part of this commitment, my laboratory is actively developing new curricular materials using insects to enhance the life science curriculum at all levels.

He has studied swarming biology and population dynamics of the Africanized ("killer") honey bee; biology and control of parasitic mites of honey bees; the ecology, behaviour and evolution of various species of honey bees in Asia; the effects of bee size on behaviour; reproductive strategies of rain forest butterflies; the influence of army ants on leaf litter arthropods; and annual bands on a tropical cactus. He has done field work on bees and butterflies in North, Central, and South America, and Southeast Asia. He has taught Insect Behaviour, Field Entomology, Introductory and Advanced Apiculture, and several other field courses. He wrote and contributed photographs to "Butterflies of Algonquin Park."

Extractions: Department of Entomology Department Mission The tripartite mission of a Land-Grant University is teaching, research, and outreach. Each aspect of the mission is important by itself, and acts to support and strengthen the others. The interdependence of these three separate areas of responsibility are basic to the functioning of the Department of Entomology in improving the welfare and the quality of life in the state, region, nation, and world. Teaching The teaching mission of the Department of Entomology is to educate and train students in entomology. Specialty courses may be taught according to the expertise of the faculty. A key part of this teaching mission is to prepare scientists to contribute to regional, national, and international biological and agricultural programs.

Academy of Teaching 300 Younkin Success Center History In his April 4, 1992 speech to the University Senate, "A Dream Deserved," President E. Gordon Gee announced his intent to form an academy of faculty who are past recipients of the Alumni Award for Distinguished Teaching (AADT), the most prestigious award for teaching at Ohio State. A planning committee of six winners of the AADT and ex officio members from the Center for Teaching Excellence, College of Humanities, and Office of Academic Affairs developed a proposal for the Academy of Teaching, which was then approved by the President. Initial members, the approximately 90 past recipients of the AADT who were still faculty members at Ohio State, were inducted in March 1993.
