Profile bio
About David Bednar
I am interested in research that improves our understanding of plant-insect interactions as well as the behavior of social insects. Understanding plant-insect interactions is important because it provides sustainable, environmentally benign, solutions to pest management problems. For my Masters degree, I focused on the impact of invasive ant species on native, forest-dwelling, ant species. My PhD research focused on the interactions between an invasive forest pest and Fraser fir. It is likely the digestive enzymes found in balsam woolly adelgid cause the symptoms and eventual death of Fraser fir, but my work was the first to suggest possible mechanisms for reactions observed in the tree. These findings should advance breeding strategies targeted toward resistance profiles for Fraser fir. I am also interested in alternative pesticides for the control of insect pest species. Whether the solution be biocontrol, biopesticides, or microbial pathogens, I think nature has already provided us with sustainable solutions to pest management. In examining Fraser fir reactions to BWA I was able to extract plant defensive chemicals and test them in bioassays for insecticidal activity. I am interested in this type of research for the development of new biopesticides from naturally derived plant products.I enjoy staying active with extra-curricular activities as I strive to maintain or improve the quality of my community. As a researcher I strive to collaborate with experts from different areas that give valuable insight into my own research. The diversity of the activities I participate in and the collaborative efforts in my research reflect these qualities.
Listed skills include Entomology, Ecology, Science, Experimental Design, and 46 others.

Jun 2010 - Dec 2010
Graduate Student
My Master's thesis focused on the behavioral interactions between an invasive ant, Pachycondyla chinensis, and native termites (Reticulitermies spp. ) and how those interactions differ from native ant species (Aphaenogaster rudis). My work involved self designed behavioral research projects in the lab and field.
