Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The aim of this book is to provide up-to-date comprehensive reviews of critical areas in entomological research. Twelve research topics are discussed that examine aspects of insect physiology, toxicology, and molecular biology that other recent books on entomological research have not completely addressed. The book is expected to be of interest for not only the researchers, graduate students, and scientists who are currently working or plan to work in this field, but also for those who are not as familiar with entomological research but are nonetheless fascinated by the complexity of the physiological processes that allow insects to interact with their hosts, pathogens, and environments. This book could never have been accomplished without the hard work put in by the chapter authors, whose energy and enthusiasm for entomology are clear in their writing. It takes an enormous amount of time to write such fascinating, thought-provoking and comprehensive reviews of current research, and I would like to express my sincere thanks to all our authors for their magnificent contributions. I am also grateful to the publisher, Research Signpost, for the chance to work with these excellent researchers and to tell the world about the research that we believe is so important. Finally, I wish to give my special thanks to Dr. Jeffery G. Scott for igniting my passionate interest in insecticide resistance research when I was a Ph.D. student in his laboratory at Cornell University. This passion has served me well, guiding my research, and stimulating my intellect over the years.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Physiological Systems in Insects, Fourth Edition explores why insects have become the dominant animals on the planet. Sections describe the historical investigations that have led us to our current understanding of insect systems. Integrated within a basic physiological framework are modern molecular approaches that provide a glimpse of the genetic and evolutionary frameworks that testify to the unity of life on earth. This updated edition describes advances that have occurred in our understanding of hormone action, metamorphosis, and reproduction, along with new sections on the role of microbiomes, insecticide action and its metabolism, and a chapter on genetics, genomics and epigenetic systems. The book represents a collaborative effort by two internationally known insect physiologists who have instructed graduate courses in insect physiology. As such, it is the ideal resource for entomologists and those in other fields who may require knowledge of insect systems. Presents updated information on key physiological principles Covers detailed and instructive figures for visual enhancement Provides flowing text without the interruption of citations Includes evolutionary considerations throughout, also providing a discussion on the implications of molecular techniques and discoveries Encourages further reading with a complete bibliography at end of each chapter

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book offers a range of environmentally benign molecular mechanisms which are safer alternative strategies for effective insect pest management. In modern era of biotechnology, there has been much advancement in the field of molecular biology, where many more techniques have evolved which can be helpful in the field of pest management too. Plant resistance, development of transgenic plants, and many more techniques are being considered the panacea to pest problems. On the other hand, there are wide spread concerns of the safety of biotechnological interventions with nontarget organisms including humans. While the world stands divided on the ethical issues of these approaches and the many safety concerns, scientists believe that well thought of biotechnological interventions are probably the only safest ways possible for reducing pest attacks on crops. It explores various techniques and aspects related to molecular pathways for crop pest control. This book is a useful resource for postgraduate students and researchers of agriculture sciences, plant pathology and plant physiology. It is also useful for policy planners in agriculture.
