About this book

Pest control is the study of the development and spread of plant diseases and arthropod pests and the factors affecting these processes.

The book presents information on principles of pest control, biological pest control, botanical insecticides, pesticides, decision tools for integrated pest management, pesticides use in agriculture, pest management cover crops, biological control and crop disease management, biopesticides and pest management, detecting genotoxic effects of pesticides in plants and guidelines of pest management. The present book is an asset for the policy makers, teachers, researchers and students of plant pathology, entomology and nematology.
