Comparisons are drawn between plant protection techniques currently applied in North America and their potential application in Europe. Cultural, biotechnical and biological control measures are also addressed, as are ecological baseline data, i.e. population dynamics of the pest in North America and Europe, economic thresholds and aspects of its behaviour UR - https://dx.doi.org/10.1079/9780851998176.0000 ER -
