Galling Arthropods and Their Associates
Author: K. Ozaki
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 4431321853
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 299
Book Description
This book addresses recent developments in the ecology, evolution, systematics, physiology, and biodiversity of gall-inducing arthropods, with individual contributions ranging in scope from detailed descriptions to profoundly synthetic studies. One underlying theme is the various impacts of gall induction that indirectly affect insect communities on the host plant. The other important contribution is the highly intricate and dynamic interactions between galling arthropods and their uniquely specialized host plants.

Handbook of Biological Control
Author: T. W. Fisher
Publisher: Elsevier
ISBN: 0080533019
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 1073
Book Description
For many years the use of chemical agents such as pesticides and herbicides has been effective in controlling the many varieties of pests that infest both agricultural crops and backyard gardens. However, these pests are gradually becoming resistant to these agents, because the agents themselves are acting as selective factors making the pests better and better able to resist and persist. As a result, the use of biological controlling agents is increasing. This book is a comprehensive and authoritative handbook of biological control.
