1. The Fungus-Growing Termites (Termitidae - Macrotermitinae): Biology, Damages on Tropical Crops and Specific Management -- 2. Termite Damage in Agriculture Areas and Implanted Forests: An Ecological Approach -- 3. Termite and Indian Agriculture: A Case Study -- 4. Termites Infesting Malaysian Forests: Case study from Bornean Forest, Sabah, Malaysia -- 5. Integrated Termite Management In the Context of Indoor and Outdoor Pests situation -- 6. Eco-friendly Termite Management in Tropical Conditions -- 7. Bio-intensive Integrated Management of Termites -- 8. Role of Botanicals in Termite Management -- 9. Microbes in Termite Management: Potential Role and Strategies in Biological Control -- 10. Sustainable Termite Management Using Physical Barriers -- 11.

Biotechnology: A Tool in Termite Management.

This termite Volume 2 comprises 13 chapters in an attempt to bring all available information on sustainable and eco-friendly termite management. The previous Volume considered the biology, social behaviour and economic importance of these insects. Chapters in this book dealing with damage and specific management of fungus-growing termites provide a review on most recent methodologies used for management. Termite damage crops from sowing till harvest. As it is difficult to detect damages in field, usually it is too late when the symptoms are noticed. A separate chapter on issues related to Indian agriculture and the contemporary practices being followed by majority of the Indian farmers is quite informative. Similarly, a case study for termites infesting Malaysian forests constitutes an important contribution. Various issues related to integrated and eco-friendly termite management in tropical conditions have been addressed comprehensively. Potential role of microbes has also been discussed in detail in other chapters. The information contained under these chapters should help termite management in a way that natural resources can be used and maintained for the generations to come. Similarly, the chapter on physical barriers contributes a wealth of information that can be useful all over the world where termite is a problem. Emphasis has been laid on reviewing contribution of synthetic chemical insecticides in termite management. A separate chapter dealing with standard norms in wood protection constitute a significant step in this direction. A further chapter throws light on the potential of biotechnology as a tool in management. .
