| dichotomous keys answer key: Biology and Management of Bactrocera and Related Fruit Flies Anthony R Clarke, 2019-07-12 Throughout Asia, Australia and the Pacific, and increasingly in Africa, the primary horticultural insect pests are fruit flies belonging to the genera Bactrocera, Zeugodacus and Dacus (Diptera: Tephritidae: Dacini). The Dacini is a hugely diverse clade of nearly 900 species endemic to the rainforests of Asia, Australia and the western Pacific, and the savannas and woodlands of Africa. All these species lay their eggs into fleshy fruits and vegetables, where the maggots feed, therefore destroying the fruit. In addition to being crop pests, dacines are also invasive pests of major quarantine importance and their presence in production areas can significantly impact market access opportunities. This broad text provides a rapid introduction to this economically and ecologically important group, which includes species such as the Oriental fruit fly (B. dorsalis), Melon fly (Z. cucurbitae), Queensland fruit fly (B. tryoni) and the Olive fly (B. oleae). Broken into three primary sections, it first explores the evolutionary history, systematic relationships, taxonomy and species-level diagnosis of the Dacini flies. The following biology section covers their life history, population demography, behaviour and ecology, and natural enemies. The final section of the book covers the management of these flies, with chapters on pre-harvest, post-harvest and regulatory controls. Each chapter concludes with a list of key monographs, papers or book chapters for further reading. This book will be of interest to field entomologists, extension officers, quarantine officers and market access negotiators, as well as students of applied entomology and pest management. |

| dichotomous keys answer key: Nematode Identification and Expert System Technology R. Fortuner, 2013-06-29 The need to identify and name organisms is fundamental to any area of biological science, basic or applied. In order to study or conduct research on an organism, or to convey information on this organism to others, we must be able to attribute to it a consistent label. Attribution of an incorrect label may have dire consequences if dangerous plant parasites are wrongly identified as members of an innocuous genus. Traditional aids to nematode identification (dichotomous keys) use systematic criteria not always well adapted to practical identification. Their reliance on dichotomous principlesdoes not allow for intra-taxon variability or for missing characters. They are difficult to update and they cannot keep pace with rapidly changing classifications. As experts in everyday life, we recognize a horse or a dog wi thout referring to the taxonomic descriptions of the genera Equus or Canis and their respective species. Problems in identification arise when we are not experts in the recognition of a particular organism, or group of organisms. Then, frequently in considerable frustration, we reflect on the usefulness of having the advice of an expert in this group. Tradi tional identification aids are useful tools for the expert identifiers, and for teaching. Their use is often difficult for general practitioners in nematology, and they may lead to incorrect identification, even at the genus level. |

| dichotomous keys answer key: Miniature Lives Michelle Gleeson, 2016-03-01 We can’t avoid insects. They scurry past us in the kitchen, pop up in our gardens, or are presented to us in jars by inquisitive children.

| dichotomous keys answer key: Ascomycete Fungi of North America Michael Beug, Alan E. Bessette, Arleen R. Bessette, 2014-03-01 Approximately 75 percent of all fungi that have been described to date belong to the phylum Ascomycota. They are usually referred to as Ascomycetes and are commonly found and collected by mushroom enthusiasts. Ascomycetes exhibit a remarkable range of biodiversity, are beautiful and visually complex, and some, including morels and truffles, are highly prized for their edibility. Many play significant roles in plant ecology because of the mycorrhizal associations that they form. Thus it is remarkable that no book dedicated to describing and illustrating the North American Ascomycetes has been published in over sixty years. Filling the gap between technical publications and the limited representation of Ascomycetes in general mushroom field guides, Ascomycete Fungi of North America is a scientifically accurate work dedicated to this significant group of fungi. Because it is impossible to describe and illustrate the tens of thousands of species that occur in North America, the authors focus on species found in the continental United States and Canada that are large enough to be readily noticeable to mycologists, naturalists, photographers, and mushroom hunters. They provide 843 color photographs and more than 600 described species, many of which are illustrated in color for the first time. While emphasizing macroscopic field identification characteristics for a general audience, the authors also include microscopic and other advanced information useful to students and professional mycologists. In addition, a color key to the species described in this book offers a visual guide to assist in the identification process. |

| dichotomous keys answer key: Evaluation of Three Computer-compatible Procedures for Using Image Interpreter Keys Richard S. Laymon, 1967 Under monitorship of the MAN-COMPUTER FUNCTIONS Task, personnel of the System Development Corporation and the U.S. Army Behavioral Science Research Laboratory jointly conducted a study to evaluate three computer-compatible methods of identifying the image interpretation reference keys most pertinent to a given identification problem. Thirty-two enlisted image interpreters having training experience with imagery showing foreign terrain and targets were subjects for the study. Simulated computer procedures were devised in which the interpreters selected target signatures appearing on checklists as a means of designating the target category and finally the key or keys desired. Results of the experiment showed: (1) Target identification by means of a reference key was as fast and as accurate with computer-compatible procedures of key selection as with the manual procedure; (2) Interpreters tended to base selection of a key on only one or two signatures even when use of additional signatures would have increased probability of valid key selection; (3) Interpreters preferred viewing more than one key before final identification of a target; (4) No significant differences in speed and accuracy of identification were found under any of the procedures when using the two levels of imagery quality. |
