Biological agents with pest-control

Biological Agents with Pest Control Activities... [Pg.256]

Currently, the only biological barrier registered as a biochemical pest control agent is kaolin, a clay mineral [47]. Kaolin is a ubiquitous clay substance found in soils worldwide and consists of a layered silicate mineral, with one tetrahedral sheet linked through oxygen atoms to one octahedral sheet of alumina octahedra [Al2Si205(0H)4]. [Pg.338]

Chapter 11 presents an overview of the agrochemical industry. Beginning with the introduction and historical background, it leads to the modern trends in agriculture, chemical pest control, herbicides, fungicides, insecticides, and biological pest control agents. Social and economic aspects of pesticides use are also discussed. [Pg.668]

The rapid growth of knowledge of natural products with biological activities toward pests now provides an option for treatment, a clearer understanding of biochemical mechanisms, and a basis for biorational approaches to the design of pest control agents Compounds that modify insect behavior are also valuable for pest control because they are normally not toxic to the target insect or to the environment ... [Pg.3]
