Recent advances in entomological research: from molecular biology to pest management

In recent years the field of entomology, due in part to the penetration of other disciplines, has made rapid progress. “Recent Advances in Entomological Research: From Molecular Biology to Pest Management” includes 25 chapters contributed by more than 40 distinguished entomologists and introduces the latest progress in entomology, from molecular biology, insect-plant interactions and insecticide toxicology, to emerging technologies in pest management. Not only isthe book interesting and informative, but it provides useful, innovative research advances and will serve as a valuable resource for entomologists, zoologists, botanists and other researchers in the field of plant protection. Tong-Xian Liu is a professor of entomology at the College of Plant Protection, Northwest A&F University, China. Le Kang is a professor of entomology at the Institute of Zoology, Chinese Academy of Sciences, China. Contributed by more than 40 distinguished entomologists. Latest research development ranging from molecular biology to applied pest management. Covers avariety of modern entomology including the emerging technologies in pest management. INDICE: Insect-Plant Interactions. Molecular Biology, Physiology, Biology,Behavior and Ecology. Insect Toxicology and Insecticide Resistance Management. Emerging Pest Management Strategies and Technologies.
