Tyler Seutter is a PhD student in the Krawczyk Lab at Penn State. His research primarily focuses on understanding how the ecological factors and orchard management practices can change the degree day development model accuracy of Oriental fruit moth (Grapholita molesta) and Codling moth (Cydia pomonella). His hope is to provide insight into how abiotic factors can influence adult moth activity and potentially influence their mating behavior and development.

In his free time he is an avid trail runner and outdoor advocate.
