Schneider-Orelli Otto

The Swiss biologist and oenologist Dr Otto Schneider-Orelli (1880-1965) studied natural sciences at the University of Bern from 1900 to 1905. He later worked as an assistant at the Swiss Research Institute for Fruit and Viticulture in Wädenswil, where he worked on plant physiological, mycological (fungi) and entomological (insects) problems. In 1917 he was appointed lecturer in entomology at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Zurich and became professor in 1929. Schneider-Orelli rendered great services to entomological education and especially through his extensive research activities in this field. A total of 110 papers deal with phylloxera (especially on the question of race) and the various species of grape berry moth (e.g. "Einbindiger und bekreuzter Traubenwickler" 1915). He was also successful in the research and development of phylloxera-resistant rootstocks.
