Two faculty members in Penn State's College of Agricultural Sciences will be featured during an episode of the PBS series "Nature" that will air in most markets at 8 p.m. on April 3. Titled "What Plants Talk About," the episode will highlight the work of Consuelo De Moraes, professor of entomology, and Mark Mescher, assistant professor of entomology.
