Description matérielle : 1 online resource
Note(s) : Notes bibliogr. Index
This volume presents a comprehensive perspective of the biopesticides Bacillus thuringiensis
and Lysinibacillus sphaericus, from their basic biology to agriculture, forestry and
public-health applications. It covers their ecology, virulence factors, and genetic
characterization. The topics related to agriculture and forestry include mode of action,
receptors of insect pests, and heterologous expression of toxins in insect cells and
plants. Public-health researchers will find information on vector control programs
with an emphasis on the Neotropical region. The book also discusses new products and
the global market
