Over the years farmers have over relied on chemical pesticides as the main strategy for controlling pests in French beans. Consequently, there has been a pest resurgence, environmental damage, pest resistance as well as lethal effects on non target beneficial organisms. A shift to the more environment friendly biological control of pests is therefore prudent. This book explores and provides an insight on the potential of Entomopathogenic nematodes, Heterorhabditis bacteriophora, and Steinernema karii, as a biological control agent against flower thrips, Frankliniella occidentalis and Megalurothrips sjostedti in French beans.The book will be found especially useful to all proponents of biological pest control and more so to researchers and other professionals in search of biological pest control. All persons interested in exploiting the potential of EPNs as a biological Agent will also find the book useful

This Colour Handbook reviews the natural predators, parasites and pathogens used to control pest populations and analyses their characteristics and practical applications. It is designed to enable the reader to anticipate, recognise and resolve specific problems of pest management. Intended as a concise accessible reference to the field, this book will be of interest to a broad spectrum of academic, professional and lay readers; the growers and the consultants advising them, students in horticulture and crop science and scientists in a broad range of related disciplines. ∗ Superb, detailed colour photographs and line drawings of predator, parasite and pest species. ∗ Accessible, practical format. ∗ Covers all the major commercial planting environments; Arable, Orchard, Glasshouse and Ornamental (parks and gardens). ∗ Unique world wide coverage. ∗ Comperhensively corss–referenced by crop, pest, and pest control species (parasites and predators).

As well as examining successful biological control programmes this book analyses why the majority of attempts fail. Off-target and other negative effects of biological control are also dealt with. Chapters contributed by leading international researchers and practitioners in all areas of biological control afford the book a breadth of coverage and depth of analysis not possible with a single author volume. Combined with the use of other experts to review chapters and editorial oversight to ensure thematic integrity of the volume, this book provides the most authoritative analysis of biological control published. Key aspects addressed include how success may be measured, how successful biological control has been to date and how may it be made more successful in the future. With extensive use of contemporary examples, photographs, figures and tables this book will be invaluable to advanced undergraduate and postgraduate students as well as being a `must' for all involved in making biological control successful.
