"IPM", 50 years after the publication of its core concepts by Stern et al. (Hilgardia, 1959), remains today a hotly debated paradigm for sustainable pest management. This presentation will review the Integrated Control Concept and provide detail on a rare working example in practice in the Arizona cotton system.

PDVs are injected during parasitization of lepidopteran hosts, and viral gene products disrupt host immunity and development to enable endoparasitoid survival.
