A survey course discussing the various families of insects, discuss thing their anatomy and physiology, and their role in ecological systems. Students will examine the ecological and evolutionary perspectives on interactions between plants and vertebrate and invertebrate animals. Further, it explores the applied consequences of animal-plant interactions to agroecology and conservation biology. These goals are achieved by reviewing the theoretical underpinnings of animal-plant interactions, and exposing students to research literature on animal-plant interactions.

Integrates aspects of biochemistry, molecular biology and evolution theory with ecology using pathogens of insects as a model. The various biotic (living) and abiotic (nonliving) factors that can contribute to plant problems. Explores the direction and goals of innovation in microbial biocontrol as well as the effect of social criticism and considerations of environmental impact on attempts to introduce engineered microorganisms.
