Arthropod Management Tests (formerly Insecticide and Acaricide Tests) is an editor-reviewed publication that annually publishes short reports on preliminary and routine screening tests for management of arthropods that may be beneficial (e.g., parasitoids, predators and diseases of pests, honey bees, silkworm) or harmful (e.g., pests and disease vectors of plants, animals, and humans). Pest management methods reported in this publication may be those using chemical pesticides as well as other materials such as insect growth regulators, semiochemicals (e.g., pheromones, kairomones), traps, bio-control agents, pest-resistant plants and animals.
The publication is divided into the following sections:
Section A: Pome Fruits
Section B: Stone Fruits
Section C: Small Fruits
Section D: Citrus, Nuts and other Tree Fruits
Section E: Vegetable Crops
Section F: Field & Cereal Crops
Section G: Ornamentals & Turf
Section H: Forest & Shade Trees
Section I: Postharvest Products
Section J: Urban, Industrial and Structural
Section K: Medical and Veterinary
Section L: Laboratory Bioassays
Section M: Plant & Animal Resistance
The publication has an Editor-in-Chief and Section Editors who are volunteers from among the ESA membership. The Editor-in-Chief applies for the position and is appointed by the ESA Governing Board based on a recommendation from the journal's editorial board.
