Frederico Hickmann

Frederico Hickmann studies insect pests that affect crops, with a strong focus on true bugs (stink bugs, aphids) and other agricultural pests such as beetles, moths, and flies. Much of the work combines species identification, genetics, and chromosome-level analysis (cytogenomics) to understand how pest species differ, hybridize, and adapt to crops like soybean, cotton, and cowpea. This research is relevant to students interested in insect biology, pest management, and genome-level tools for studying agricultural pests.

Publication output has grown over the last decade, rising from occasional single papers per year before 2020 to a steady stream of several publications annually since 2022, with a notable increase in 2025-2026.
