Insecticide Resistance de Ian Denholm

Insecticide Resistance

Editat de Ian Denholm
en Limba Engleză Hardback – mar 1999
Resistance of pests to chemical pesticides is becoming a severe problem. This book collects some of the latest research on this problem and covers a wide range of issues, including molecular genetics, mechanisms, ecological genetics, and pest management. It includes research from Europe, North America, Asia, and Australia, and features a discussion of a genetically delivered toxicant derived from the insect pathogen Bacillus thuringiensis. The collection will be a valuable resource for agricultural, medical, and veterinary entomologists.

Recenzii

"Resistance to insects and other arthropods to chemically-based control strategies is an increasing threat to coping with the expected rapid rise in world population. This in turn also affects the world's fauna as well as ourselves. . . . [T]his book . . . focuses on the attention being currently given to both basic and applied research with reference to preserving biological diversity and increase food production. . . . The papers presented are grouped under two broad headings: Genes and mechanisms and Ecological genetics and management. . . . [T]here appeared to be great optimism that resistance management strategies will be an integral part of future plans of pest control. It was recognized that the mitigation of resistance in arthropod pests was a difficult and complicated task . . . This book has admirably summarized the current knowledge on arthropod resistance to chemicals and shows ways to tackle the problem in the future."--Oriental Insects
"Based on a discussion meeting held at the Royal Society, London in April 1998, this book addresses the issues surrounding the ever increasing ability of insects and other arthropod pests to adapt resistance to chemically-based control strategies, such as direct application of pesticides and augmentation of crop defenses by genetic manipulation. The international scholars and agricultural specialists who contributed essays for this volume cover topics such as genetic mutations, gene splicing, and other molecular forms of resistance; predicting insecticide resistance; and alternative methods of chemical usage, such as pyramiding strategies, for management of insecticidal transgenic crops."--SciTech Book News
." . .this volume will be a valuable reference to those involved in the study of the insecticide or acaricide resistance, there are chapters that will attract those interested in population genetics or in resistance as an example of accelerated evolution. The diversity of chapters provides items of int
