It discusses the uses and abuses of biopesticides, their positive and negative consequences, as well as more recent advances and the best mode of action to improve environmental safety. FEATURES Thoroughly updated, this edition explores not only the benefits but also all aspects of biopesticides Includes new chapters on the uses of biochemical and microbial pesticides and plant-incorporated protectants Discusses the new field of RNAi pesticides Provides information on insect growth regulators and allelochemicals Introduces a new chapter on the uses of biopesticides in food and medicinal crops This book is intended for professionals, researchers, academics, and postgraduate students with experience in fields such as chemistry, biochemistry, environmental sciences, ecology, and agriculture, as well as those invested in the supply chain of agricultural products, such as farmers, growers, and other stakeholders.

Book Biopesticides Manual

Download or read book Biopesticides Manual written by Keith Andrew Holmes and published by Cabi. This book was released on 2019-02-25 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This manual aims to make information resources and technical advice available in order to support the deployment of biopesticides, which include microbials (e.g. bacteria, algae, protozoa, viruses and fungi), macrobials (e.g. predatory insects, parasitoids and beneficial nematodes), botanicals, and semiochemicals. It is intended to be a one-stop shop to address the information needs of the key groups who are responsible for selecting, sourcing and using biopesticides in the tobacco production system. Chapter 2 provides information for decision makers to support selection of biopesticide active substances. It also provides guidelines for trial managers on experimental design, data collection and reporting. Chapter 3 provides guidance for sourcing biopesticides. It also includes manuals for the local production of three types of biopesticide: Trichogramma; neem [Azadirachta indica]; and fungal biopesticides such as Trichoderma. Chapter 4 presents training materials to provide an overview of biopesticides in general together with detailed information on how to work with the key biopesticides that have already been used successfully to manage key pests in tobacco.

Book Field Manual of Techniques in Invertebrate Pathology

Download or read book Field Manual of Techniques in Invertebrate Pathology written by Lawrence A. Lacey and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2007-10-04 with total page 852 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The basic tools include chapters on the theory and practice of application of microbial control agents (MCAs) (Section I), statistical considerations in the design of experiments (Section II), and three chapters on application equipment and strategies (Section III). Section IV includes individual chapters on the major pathogen groups (virus, bacteria, microsporidia, fungi, and nematodes) and special considerations for their evaluation under field conditions. This section sets the stage for subsequent chapters on the impact of naturally occurring and introduced exotic pathogens and inundative application of MCAs. Twenty-three chapters on the application and evaluation of MCAs in a wide variety of agricultural, forest, domestic and aquatic habitats comprise Section VII of the Field Manual. In addition to insect pests, the inclusion of mites and slugs broadens the scope of the book.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Aimed at students, professionals, and others wishing to understand basic biological aspects of crop protection, this book is an easily accessible introduction to essential principles of pesticide and biopesticide mode of action and formulation. Because the mode of action of a biopesticide typically differs from that of conventional pesticides, it is crucial to understand how a biopesticide works in crop protection programs - including the influences of various biotic and abiotic factors as well as a biological understanding of the mode of action of these products. -- COVER.

Book excerpt: PESTICIDES & BIOPESTICIDES: FORMULATION & MODE OF ACTION is the first book in the LABCOAT GUIDE TO CROP PROTECTION series. Aimed at students, professionals, and others wishing to learn basic biological aspects of Crop Protection, this book is an easily accessible introduction to essential principles of Pesticide and Biopesticide Mode Of Action and Formulation. Because the mode of action of a biopesticide typically differs from that of conventional pesticides, the efficacy of the biopesticide must also be assessed differently - not only through field trials but also by estimating growth, stress tolerance, yield and quality of the final product. It is crucial to understand how a biopesticide works in a crop protection program, and to thoroughly test the product based on all potential benefits. Variable biopesticide efficacy (often cited as a key weakness) is in part due to the influences of various biotic and abiotic factors, and in part due to a lack of biological understanding of the mode of action of these products - more than ever, it is up to producers to mediate this information to their customers. Particular attention is given to pesticide and biopesticide formulation, delivery and application practices, specifically to understanding the impact of plant defence induction kinetics on application timing and placement.
