9780841227736 - Natural and Engineered Pest Management Agents (Acs Symposium Series) von Hedin, Paul A.; Menn, Julius J.; Conference On Natural And Derived Pest M; Hollingworth, Ro... (1 Ergebnisse)

Hardcover. Zustand: Fine. This volume explores emerging technologies in crop protection based on new natural pest management agents and materials derived from natural models, and discusses the discovery and application of pesticides based on peptides, neuropeptides, natural products, and natural and engineered viral agents. The book also presents information on new approaches to designing pesticides offered through molecular modeling and computer-aided design, discusses registration of biopesticides, and presents case studies.xvi, 552 p. : ill. ; 24 cm. #080722Development of Natural Products and Their Derivatives for Pest Control in the 21st Century, P.A.
