PRINCIPAL RESEARCH ACCOMPLISHMENTS IN ACADEMIA
Throughout my career, I have had an abiding interest in unraveling the chemical
ecology of insects. A parallel goal has been to apply the knowledge gained in this
pursuit toward the management of pest and beneficial insects, mainly in forestry, but
also in agricultural and urban environments. Residing in a general department of
biological sciences has allowed me the luxury of letting my focus wander. Thus some
of my time was spent investigating a wide array of subjects, including insect life
history, morphology, endocrinology, systematics, biological control, and even
chemical pesticides. I have been most fortunate to be surrounded by remarkably

6. 6
bright and capable students, postdoctoral fellows, research associates, technicians and
colleagues, and most of my research has involved collaboration with these talented
individuals. Particular acknowledgment is due to my long-term Research Associate,
Dr. Harold D Pierce, Jr, and to my Research Technician for 29 years Ms. Leslie J
Chong. The accomplishments below belong as much to all of these people as they do
to me.
Identification of pheromones for:
• 22 species of scolytid beetles (aggregation and antiaggregation pheromones),
• 2 species of forest defoliators (sex pheromones),
• 7 species of stored grain beetles (establishing macrolide lactones as a new
class of insect aggregation pheromones),
• honey bees (queen mandibular gland pheromone, published in Nature),
• 5 orchard pests (sex pheromones, one of them the first known pheromone in
the hemipteran family Miridae),
• 3 beetles pests of palms (aggregation pheromones),
• western flower thrips (alarm pheromone),
• western conifer seed bug (alarm pheromone),
• lygus bugs (alarm pheromone), and
• cockroaches (a “necromone” released by dead cockroaches).
Elucidation of pheromone biogenesis, including:
• first experimental demonstration that juvenile hormone controls pheromone
synthesis in bark beetles (published in Science) and stored grain beetles,
• proof of pheromone production by axenically-reared bark beetles,
• demonstration that symbiotic microorganisms produce an antiaggregation
pheromone of bark beetles, and
• discovery that a bark beetle antiaggregation pheromone can be produced by
autoxidation of a monoterpene precursor.
Characterization of semiochemical-based communication systems in insects,
including:
• elucidation of: first demonstration of synergism between enantiomers of a
pheromone (published in Science),
• allelochemic activity of pheromones for ambrosia beetles and bark beetles,
• geographically-specific, enantiomer-based pheromone profiles based on
analysis of a chiral pheromone in individual bark beetles,
• first demonstration of dual synergism between monoterpenes and between
these monoterpenes and pheromones in a bark beetle (the mountain pine
beetle),
• interacting role of pheromone isomers and host volatiles in the multi-
component semiochemical messages used by stored grain beetles,
• redundancy in the semiochemical message used by the mountain pine beetle,
• role of geometrical and optical isomerism in maintaining optimal response
levels and species specificity in the western balsam bark beetle and a
congeneric, sympatric species,
• role of photodecomposition in regulating the bioactivity of the mountain pine
beetle antiaggregation pheromone verbenone,

7. 7
• size-dependent production of amounts of antiaggregation pheromones by male
mountain pine beetles,
• allelochemic responses of cerambycid woodborers to bark beetle pheromones,
• role of larval oral exudates in territorial interactions between larvae of eastern
and western spruce budworms, and
• function of a single pheromone component in maintaining species specificity
between two orchard leafrollers.
Description of plant-insect interactions in host selection, including:
• interaction between photic, gravitational and chemical stimuli in host selection
by the white pine weevil,
• multicomponent resistance in spruces to the white pine weevil,
• terpene-based primary attraction by bark beetles to lodgepole pine, grand fir,
Douglas-fir, and subalpine fir,
• antixenotic and antibiotic resistance by a tropical leguminous tree to a psyllid
pest, and by certain hybrid poplar clones to the poplar and willow borer,
• role of non-host volatiles and bark reflectance in maintaining host specificity
for bark and ambrosia beetles,
• internal degradation of lipid and protein in conifer seeds caused by seed bug
feeding,
• first discovery of several pheromones of conifer-infesting bark beetles in
angiosperm tree bark,
• demonstration of: molecular prerequisites necessary for perception of sulfur-
containing hydrocarbons by the onion fly,
• role of plant volatiles in long-range attraction and stimulation of oviposition
by onion flies,
• trans-ovarial transmission of bacteria that enhance attraction of onion flies to
their hosts, and
• interaction between onion volatiles and an oviposition-stimulating pheromone
of the onion fly.
Exploration of host selection mechanisms employed by hymenopteran
parasitoids, including:
• first demonstration of host finding by heat perception by a parasitoid of bark
beetles,
• description of a new antennal sensillum postulated to be an infrared receptor,
and
• elucidation of associative learning in a generalist parasitoid.
Systematic studies:
• using classical taxonomic characters and cross-mating leading to the
synonymy of two species of palm weevils, and
• use of molecular techniques to elucidate the phylogeny of ambrosia beetles in
the genus Trypodendron.
Description of life histories:
• the alder bark beetle (later used in an impact study in Weyerhaeuser Canada’s
red alder plantations), and
• an exotic insect, the redbacked sawfly, on red alder.

8. 8
Elucidation of potential mechanisms for the bio-rational control of mosquitoes,
including:
• impact of predaceous backswimmers,
• oviposition deterrence in duck weed, and
• validation of folklore that smoke from Indian paint fungus sporophores is
highly toxic to adult mosquitoes.
In applied forest entomology:
• development and implementation of operational, attractant-based pest
management programs for ambrosia beetles and the mountain pine beetle, and
liaison with industry and government in phasing these programs into the
private and public sectors, respectively,
• development of a new techniques for using the antiaggregation pheromone
verbenone to deter attack by the mountain pine beetle,
• combining verbenone and pheromone-baited trees in a push-pull tactic against
the mountain pine beetle,
• use of pheromones of heterospecifics, as well as non-host volatiles, to deter
attack by bark and timber beetles,
• use of host volatiles, bark beetle pheromones and a newly-developed cross-
vane trap for operational mass trapping of large woodboring beetles,
• pheromone-based containment and concentration of the western balsam bark
beetle for use in alternative silvicultural systems,
• induction of competitive exclusion and displacement of spruce beetles by
using pheromone baits for secondary species,
• using traps baited with western hemlock looper sex pheromone to predict egg
populations in the succeeding generation, and
• development of an antibody-based bioassay to detect residual saliva in conifer
seeds emptied by the western conifer seed bug.
In applied field crop entomology:
• extension of basic research on visual and olfactory responses of the onion fly
and the carrot rust fly into the development and implementation of operational
integrated pest management programs.
In applied orchard entomology:
• development of pheromone-based monitoring for the mullein bug, and
• demonstration of pheromone-based mating disruption for the eyespotted
budmoth, the obliquebanded leafroller, the threelined leafroller, and the
mullein bug (the latter being the first demonstration of mating disruption in the
order Hemiptera).
Insecticide efficacy testing leading to:
• registration of monosodium methane arsonate, carbaryl, chlorpyrifos,
verbenone and MCH for use on bark beetles in Canada, and
• demonstration of the potential of neem seed oil for controlling spruce aphids
and pine bark beetles.
