Description
Both volumes of Parasites and Pathogens of Insects provide in-depth coverage of the interface between insect parasites
and pathogens and hosts, and explore the relationships between these partners. They emphasize biochemical and molecular interactions,
basic biology, and the roles of hormones, receptors, and other cellular components in modulating interactions between host insects and
attacking agents. These topics also are assessed in relation to biotechnology and biological control.
In the short term, these volumes
fill a void in current literature by emphasizing basic interactions at the biochemical and molecular levels. In the long term, these
interactions may provide avenues for exploitation to enhance the rate of "beneficial" parasitism or to reduce the rates of disease transmission
and infection of vertebrate hosts.
