Juvenile hormones (JHs) affect most stages of the insect life-cycle as well as their physiological functions. Juvenoids, manmade chemicals that mimic the actions of JHs, can be used to disrupt the endocrine system of insects, making them particularly suited as larvicides for the control of pest and disease vectoring insects. This book presents various modeling approaches and computational methods that can be used to study the mechanism of action of JHs in insects and to estimate the adverse effects and the environmental fate of juvenoids.
