Johnson, one of Dr. Oatman’s Ph.D. students. We dedicate this work to the memory and contributions of Earl R. Oatman (1920–2015), Emeritus Professor of Entomology, University of California, Riverside (UCR), United States. Professor Oatman grew up in the agricultural setting of rural, eastern Oklahoma. He joined the United States Army prior to America’s involvement in WWII. Following the Japanese invasion of the Philippines, he was taken prisoner in April 1942 at the age of 22. He experienced the infamous Bataan Death March from which he escaped and evaded the Japanese for about 1 year. He was later retaken prisoner and held for 3 years, eventually being sent to Japan where he did slave labor in a zinc mine. He was freed following the destruction of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Following the war’s end, Professor Oatman earned B.S. and M.S. degrees from the University of Missouri at Columbia. He continued his education at the University of California, Berkeley, where he obtained a Ph.D. in Entomology in 1956, studying under Professor A. E. Michelbacher, an early proponent of the “integrated control” concept. Afterward, he joined the Entomology faculty of the University of Wisconsin, Madison, where his research focused on integrated control of ar- thropod pests of deciduous fruit trees. In 1962, he was hired into the Division of Biological Control of UCR’s Department of Entomology, where his primary responsibilities were research and instruction (undergraduate and graduate). Professor Oatman’s research focused on the biological control and integrated pest management (IPM) of arthropods at- tacking vegetable crops (e.g., tomatoes, broccoli, and potatoes) and small fruit (strawberries). These cropping systems historically received frequent applications of pesticides due to low cosmetic thresholds. In the 1960s and 1970s, he was one of a handful of researchers who pioneered the use of alternative controls and IPM approaches in tomatoes and other vegetable crops. Major pests that he and his team of colleagues and students targeted included the tomato fruitworm, Heliocoverpa zea (Boddie), beet armyworm, Spodoptera exigua (Hübner), tomato pinworm, Keiferia lycopersicella (Walsingham), cabbage looper, Trichoplusia ni (Hübner), tobacco hornworm, Manduca sexta (Johannson), and veg- etable leafminer, Liriomyza sativae Blanchard. Studies were conducted on population monitoring, biological control (conservation, augmentation, and classical), timing of chemical applications based on pest densities, selective pesticides, natural enemy biology and ecology, non-target impacts of broad spectrum pesticide use, economic analysis of manage- ment approaches, and mating disruption using pheromones. Results from the studies of Professor Oatman and his associates demonstrated that calendar-based, unilateral chemical con- trol for the complete array of tomato pests was unnecessary and sometimes resulted in upsets of secondary pests (e.g., Liriomyza leafminers) within the crop system. By integrating selective pesticides, such as formulations of Bacillus thuringiensis spores, and augmentative releases of the egg parasitoid Trichogramma pretiosum Riley, it was possible to control the direct fruit pests (e.g., H. zea, S. exigua, K. lycopersicella) without decimating the natural enemies that held leafminers in check. The desire to use the most effective egg parasitoids in augmentative releases stimulated Professor Oatman to conduct foreign exploration for effective Trichogramma species and become a world expert on the biology and systematics of this genus in collaboration with Professor John Pinto. These efforts contributed to the development and success of today’s com- mercial insectaries that produce Trichogramma for commercial farming operations.
