Dr Falko Drijfhout from Keele University has also just returned from his trip to Zheijang University in Hangzhou, China.
He has visited Zheijang before, in September last year, when he got chatting to a Chinese researcher who was interested in collaborating on research into whiteflies, a serious pest to crops. This year the RSC has sponsored a second visit for him to discuss their ongoing research on
the role of hydrocarbons in whitefly behaviour and identification.
