During my Ph.D. program in Entomology at the University of Florida
(1989), I studied the impact of nutrition and allelochemicals on the growth,
development and nutritional physiology of several noctuid herbivore species.
As a post-doc, I studied the compensatory and toxicological abilities of noctuid
species when challenged by allelochemicals and diluted diets. Later, I studied
the respiration of numerous termite species in altered atmospheres similar to
their closed gallery systems.
