Microbial approaches for insect pest management
Microbial approaches for insect pest management[electronic resource] /edited by Omkar. - Singapore :Springer Nature Singapore :2021. - xiii, 446 p. :ill., digital ;24 cm.

Chapter 1. Entomopathogenic Viruses -- Chapter 2. Entomopathogenic Bacteria -- Chapter 3. Bacillus thuringiensis -- Chapter 4. The Endophytes -- Chapter 5. The Symbionts -- Chapter 6. Metagenomic Approachess for Symbionts -- Chapter 7. Entomopthogenic Fungi -- Chapter 8. Entomopathogenic Protozoa -- Chapter 9. Entomopathogenic Nematodes -- Chapter 10. Ethics and Safety Concerns.

This book brings together specialized information on modern aspects of applied microbiology in pest management. In the last few decades, the humans have witnessed major advancements in Life Sciences, as a result several new and powerful tools and techniques have evolved. This has led to great advancements in microbial nutrition, genetics and their application in different fields. In modern era of biotechnology, the microbes have provided solutions to many of the human problems and necessities and thus serve as human and farmers' friends. The microbes have proved to be successful tools for the pest management. Similarly, there has been much advancement in the field of molecular biology, where many more techniques have evolved which can be helpful in the field of pest management too. Plant resistance, development of transgenic plants, and many more techniques are being considered the panacea to pest problems. On the other hand, there are wide spread concerns of the safety of these microbial and biotechnological interventions with nontarget organisms including humans. While the world stands divided on the ethical issues of these approaches and the many safety concerns, scientists believe that well thought of microbial and biotechnological interventions are probably the only safest ways possible for reducing pest attacks on crops. This is useful read for postgraduate students and teachers, plant protection practioners across the world and also useful for policy planners.
