 | | For example, EPG is being used to develop new crop varieties resistant to damage by such agricultural pests such as brown citrus aphid, glassy-winged sharpshooter, silverleaf whitefly, potato leafhopper and many others. |
 | | About the Workshop: This intensive (5 days, 10 hours per day) workshop is one of only two workshops of their kind taught in the world, to be taught by one of the top EPG researchers in the world, Dr. Elaine Backus. |
 | | Training with a researcher’s own species of insect: Professional researchers who wish to learn EPG using “their own” insect species may, on a limited basis and only with government permission, import insects into California for the workshop. |
