Chapter 9 (Page no: 130)

Entomopathogenic nematodes for management of insect pests of canola and other oilseed crops.

This chapter reviews the potential of entomophilic nematodes (EPNs) as biological control agents against major insect pests of rape and other Brassica oilseed crops, including Indian mustard, camelina and crambe. Available data on EPN efficacy against different pests is summarized. Future prospects to enhance the biological control potential of EPNs against oilseed crop pests are also discussed.
