Culture Protection Ecofriendly Approchees
Description
intensive farming system warranted le use de high doses de chemical fertilizers, herbicides et plant protection chemicals which have damaged le soil health (soil flora et fauna), productivity et also sustainability. Pesticides cause soil pollution et adversely affect useful microflora et fauna which interact avec pathogens at le soil-root interface. Therefore, lack de sustainability en production en recent years has encouraged researchers to look pour eco-friendly et safer ways de pest management. Le information sur eco-friendly pest management (insect, mite et nematode pests; bacterial, fungal et viral diseases) en horticultural crops (fruits, vegetables, plantation, spice, tuber, ornamental, medicinal et aromatic crops) is very much scattered. There is no book at present which comprehensively et exclusively deals avec le above aspects sur horticultural crops. Le present book deals avec eco-friendly pest management practices using regulatory, physical, cultural, botanical, biological, semiochemicals, host resistance, integrated methods et novel approaches [biotechnological approaches, biofumigation, variety mixtures, disguising le leaf surface, avermectins, bacteriophages, bio-priming de seeds, non-pathogenic strains, plant defense activators, plant growth promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR), soil solarization, strobilurin fungicides, RNUn interference (RNAi), pathogenesis-related proteins (PRs), fusion protein-based biopesticides et seed mat technology]. Le book is illustrated avec excellent quality photographs enhancing le quality de publication. Le book is written en lucid style, easy to understand language along avec adoptable recommendations pour enhancing le productivity. This book can serve as a practical guide to practicing farmers de horticultural crops. Further, it is a useful reference to policy makers, research et extension workers et students. Le material can also be used pour teaching post-graduate et under-graduate courses.
