| Summary |
This volume focuses on the developmental areas of biopesticides: production, formulation, application and field efficacy. Chapters guide readers through methods and techniques on environmental, mammalian, safety, and registration. Written in the highly successful Methods in Molecular Biology series format, chapters include introductions to their respective topics, lists of the necessary materials and reagents, step-by-step, readily reproducible laboratory protocols, and tips on troubleshooting and avoiding known pitfalls. Authoritative and cutting-edge, Microbial-Based Biopesticides aims to ensure successful results in the further study of this vital field |
