Ethan Doherty is a Research Fellow in the Department of Mathematical and Statistical Sciences at Clemson University's College of Science. His work focuses on applied entomology, pest management, and ecological interactions in agricultural and urban systems. He investigates topics such as stored grain pest resistance, turfgrass diversity effects on herbivorous insects, and biological control strategies using parasitoids and endophytic fungi.
His research integrates mathematical modeling and statistical analysis to address challenges in crop protection, urban landscaping, and sustainable pest management. Notable areas include the efficacy of insecticides against stored grain beetles, host preferences of Sitophilus oryzae, and the role of cultivar diversity in associational resistance.
Recent studies highlight his contributions to understanding Trichogramma wasp biocontrol mechanisms and the in planta localization of endophytic fungi in citrus crops. His work bridges theoretical ecology with practical applications, emphasizing interdisciplinary approaches to agricultural and environmental challenges.
