Improving biocontrol of Plutella xylostella : Proceedings of the International Symposium, Montpellier, France, 21-24 October 2002

Plutella xylostella (DBM) is a key pest of crucifers resistant to many insecticides and some crystalendotoxins. Biological control based IPM and classical biocontrol have had varied success. How can the biological control of DBM be improved? This book presents key papers from and the proceedings of an international symposium and workshop held in Montpellier France from 21-24 October 2002. The status of Plutella and control measures used in different areas of the world are discussed and recommendations for improving biocontrol are made. The book is of interest to those involved with the biocontrol, ecology and genetics of Plutella and its natural enemies.
