Synopsis

This volume presents new information in the science and technology of biologically-based pest-management systems for crop and livestock protection. It examines many of the challenges facing implementation of biologically-based technologies, including regulatory issues, education and patents. The book also: discusses biocontrol agents for suppression of insects, plant pathogens and weeds, natural compounds in pest management, genetic manipulations of biocontrol agents; and includes an introductory section that defines the role of biologically-based control, and presents a framework for developing a holistic systems approach to implementation of this technology.
