Books in the Progress in Biological Control series

extrapolation of the wide knowledge existed in another systems for understanding biocontrol processes: C. and exploiting advanced genomic tools to promote understanding biocontrol processes and thereafter improve specific biological control agents.

This book is the first to integrate biological control into a conceptual framework - ecostacking - uniting all aspects of biological control and ecosystem services.

Biological control has become an attractive alternative strategy for the control of plant diseases to reduce the excessive use of agrochemicals and its health hazards.

This book provides a comprehensive account of interaction of host and pests, and development of biological control agents for practical applications in crops management utilizing inherent defence mechanism, induced stimulation and biological control agents.
