Paola Barriga, Faculty, academic professional, UGA Department of Plant Biology This course is designed to allow participants to evaluate plant-insect interactions in gardens from an ecological perspective. For instance, we will focus on the importance of maintaining plant and insect pollinator diversity and the ecological factors that may influence this outcome. Among the factors that...
Scott Clem, PhD, assistant professor of ecology, Illinois State University In this course, you will learn how to identify common arthropods (i.e., insects and arachnids) that are commonly encountered in Georgia gardens. This class will equip you with the necessary knowledge and tools for distinguishing beneficial insects from those that are potentially harmful to the...
