Written by experts in the fields of insect pest genetics, the
genetics of biological control organisms, and the application of
biological control, this book provides the first up-to-date summary
of the genetic literature on the genetics of arthropod biological
control agents. It identifies successful programs and also gaps and
needs in research, research constraints, and possible research
approaches in this important field of pest control. The power and
applicability of new genetic and molecular biology methods have
created new and exciting possibilities to greatly improve the
effectiveness of traditional biological control programs. This book
provides essential information about the state-of-the-art
application of these new methods. It explains how biological
control procedures can be improved, covers methods for selecting
pesticide-resistant strains of natural enemies, and looks at
methods for maintaining genetic diversity and quality control
during the rearing of biological control agents in the laboratory.
The book also provides information regarding the application of
powerful PCR methods for taxonomic identification of strains and
species of biocontrol agents.
