Biocontrol News and Information

Overview

This fully searchable abstract database provides the latest information on important developments in all aspects of the use of living organisms to control pest animals, weeds and plant diseases.

Derived from CAB Abstracts, coverage includes classical biological control, augmentative biological control and conservation biological control either as a stand-alone solution or as part of an integrated pest management approach.

Biocontrol News and Information is updated weekly, delivering all the new highly-targeted, searchable summaries covering key English and non-English language journal articles, reports, conferences and books about biological control.

The database includes a fully-searchable backfile to 1977. With over 105,000 research summaries and over 6,000 records added to the database each year, Biocontrol News and Information brings a wealth of current and seminal research in biocontrol to your fingertips!

Biocontrol News and Information is also available in print. Published quarterly, It features news, reviews, and commentary, plus abstracts derived from CAB Abstracts.
Reviews published in CAB Reviews: Perspectives in Agriculture, Veterinary Science, Nutrition and Natural Resources that match the scope of  Biocontrol News and Information will be reprinted in the journal.

Coverage

Biocontrol in crops and stored products
Biological control of plant pests (including arthropod pests, plant-parasitic nematodes and gastropods), plant diseases and weeds in 

• field crops (including cereals, grain legumes, root crops, fibre crops, oil crops)
• fodder crops & pastures
• horticultural crops (including vegetables, fruits, ornamental plants, stimulant plants)
• forest trees
• stored products

Biocontrol of pests of medical and veterinary importance
Biological control of arthropods of public health importance, haematophagous arthropods, arthropod vectors of human and animal diseases and arthropod intermediate hosts of vertebrate parasites.

Biology of biocontrol organisms
The biology and mode of action of biological control organisms (predatory arthropods, parasitoids, entomogenous fungi, entomopathogenic bacteria, entomophilic nematodes, insect viruses and antagonists), including:

• taxonomy and evolution
• life history, reproduction and development
• morphology and anatomy
• genetics (including genetic improvement and manipulation of biocontrol agents)
• physiology and biochemistry
• behaviour
• ecology (including pest and natural enemy dynamics, simulation and modelling, host interactions)

Integrated Pest Management
The implementation and role of biocontrol methods in integrated pest management, pesticide effects (including non-target effects of pesticides on biocontrol organisms, pesticide resistance).

Safety and legislation
Biocontrol policy and legislation, registration and commercial development, quality control, quarantine, safety testing, environmental impact analysis.

Rearing, culture and other techniques
Production and utilization of biocontrol agents (mass-rearing, host-range screening, formulation, distribution, application and release methods, monitoring and evaluation).

Geographical distribution and faunas
New geographic records of biocontrol agents and potential biocontrol agents, general studies of natural enemy distribution, checklists including natural enemies in specified regions.

 

Updates to this list are produced monthly. Designation of Open Access publications are currently available in the downloadable version.
