Principles of Insect Pathology, a text written from a pathological
viewpoint, is intended for graduate-level students and researchers
with a limited background in microbiology and in insect diseases.
The book explains the importance of insect diseases and illuminates
the complexity and diversity of insect-microbe relationships.
Separate sections are devoted to the major insect pathogens, their
characteristics, and their life cycles the homology that exists
among invertebrate, vertebrate, and plant pathogens the humoral and
cellular defense systems of the host insect as well as the evasive
and suppressive activities of insect disease agents the structure
and function of passive barriers the heterogeneity in host
susceptibility to insect diseases and associated toxins the
mechanisms regulating the spread and persistence of diseases in
insects. Principles of Insect Pathology combines the disciplines of
microbiology (virology, bacteriology, mycology, protozoology),
pathology, and immunology within the context of the insect host,
providing a format which is understandable to entomologists,
microbiologists, and comparative pathologists.
