摘要:
A linear deterministic simulation model was developed to examine the historical rate of movement of the boll weevil,Anthonomus grandis grandisBoheman, across the southeastern United States. This manuscript addresses the hypotheses proposed during the initial invasion of the boll weevil that cotton production and prevailing winds were the primary factors regulating movement of this pest. A modification of the historical model was used to predict defensive strategies required to maintain boll weevil-free areas resulting from the current program efforts.
