Biopesticides and Biocontrol for Green Agriculture
H.A. Modi
Due to chemical dominance biocontrol in crop protection was neglected. Soon after, the consequences of indiscriminate use of pesticides was realized resulting in imposition of ban on many of them. This opened new vistas for rapid developments of biocontrol as a discipline. Detailed investigations on the biology and ecology of pest and natural enemies have provided insights which have enabled the control techniques to be used more effectively. Understanding the epidemiology, life cycles and in vitro culture techniques of antagonistic organisms have been successfully exploited to develop biocontrol agents as biopesticides. Biopesticides have several advantages over chemical pesticides. In developing countries, where there is a shortage of foreign exchange, an attractive possibility is the manufacture of biopesticides using cheap locally available agricultural wastes as a substrate for culturing the biological control agents by cottage industries or the farmers cooperatives.
Contents of book “Biopesticides and Biocontrol for Green Agriculture” include :
• Integrated Pest and Disease Management System (IPDMS) • An Introduction to Biopesticides
• Microbial Control of Insects • Bacteria as Biocontrol Agents • Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) and Their Insecticidal Toxins • Commercial Production of Bacterial Insecticides • Fungal Insecticides
• Viral and Rickettsial Insecticides • Protozoal Insecticides • Nematode-based Insecticides
• Botanical Pesticides • Bioherbicides • Biocontrol through Transgenic Plant Technology • Biocontrol of Plant Diseases • Phytochemicals for control of Plant Pathogens
In addition, other important information regarding biocontrol and biopesticides are summarized in eight appendices and included in the book for benefitting to the readers.
The present compilation attempts to offer basic concepts of all the essential components of biopesticides used for agriculture purposes and should prove of help to all students and professionals engaged in agriculture study and practices. This book will prove of great help to students pursuing U.G. and P.G.

Plant Diseases and their Biological Control
A. Singh
Indiscriminate use of pesticides has harmed the mankind, animals, environment and ecology. The development of resistance in some pathogens against fungicides, lack of reliable chemical control measures and also the lack or non availability of resistant varieties to major diseases in some crops led to search of alternative means for disease control. The alternatives are those refered to as biological controls. The biological control refers to the purposeful utilization of introduced or resident living organisms, other than disease resistant host plants, to suppress the activities and populations of one or more plant pathogens. The microorganisms have come under focus for the management of diseases due to their unique ability to survive in the ecosystem and reducing the severity of the diseases.
The present book Plant Diseases and their Biological Control incorporates the critical reviews and research articles on biological control of pathogens. Important articles are on Biological Control as an Ecological Safer Technology, Biocontrol through Microbes and Endomycorrhiza, Mitigating Plant Disease through Cultural Practices, Mechanism of Action of Biocontrol Agents, Potential Application of Trichoderma, Mass Production and Formulation of Bioagents, Plant Disease Management through Diversified Cropping Systems, Biological Control of Rice Blast and Pigeon Pea Wilt, Molecular Advances of Disease Management in Indian Mustard, Development of Pseudomonas Fluorescens based Biopesticides, Biocontrol of Chilli Leaf Curl Disease and Rot of Ginger, Biotechnological Approaches for Disease Management in Forest Trees, Biological Control of Postharvest Diseases of Fruits, Marker Assisted Selection for Resistance Improvement in Potatoes, Agonistic Phyllosphere Consortium of Microbes in the Development of Disease of Fern and Biological Control of Jatropha Plant Diseases.

Eco-Friendly and Non Hazardous Management of Pests
T. Singh
,
K. Agrawal
Plant diseases were known to man when organized agriculture came into existence and when man had to move to other areas in search of food. In spite of many thousand years of progress in human civilization, based on great scientific advances and also the opening of new frontiers in scientific agriculture, it remains a stark truth even today that a very large proportion of world population still remains underfed, undernourished or even starved.
Disease is a state of abnormality, which develops through interaction of a host and parasite under suitable environmental conditions. The plant diseases can be efficiently controlled by the application of chemicals such as fungicides, bactericides, insecticides etc., but these are not permanent methods and on the contrary they pollute the environment and at times are hazardous to human health. Hence, there is need to reduce the load of synthetic chemical pesticides in an effort to provide for safer foods and a cleaner environment. Development of breeding of disease resistant varieties of crop plants is also an efficient, practically feasible and economically ideal method of disease management. Now more use of physical methods, bio-pesticides and exploitation of native plant resources in plant protection is needed. Scientists world over have paid attention to develop eco-friendly and non-hazardous means of plant disease control.
This book, Eco-friendly and non-hazardous Management of Plant Diseases is a unique and comprehensive book with critical reviews in the area. The book contains 24 chapters which include information regarding management of plant diseases caused by fungi, bacteria, nematodes and insects mainly of cereals, pulses, spices, vegetables, fruits mushrooms etc. The various eco-friendly management measures discussed include use of physical and cultural methods of microbial antagonists, botanicals, VAM fungi etc.
The book shall be of a great help to teachers, researchers, students and persons engaged in the field of Seed Technology, Plant Pathology, Seed Pathology, Horticulture, Agro-forestry, Entomology, Nematology and others interested in different branches of Botany and Agriculture. ..more

Crop Pest and their ecofriendly control has attracted the attention of all spheres of our society. This is mainly due to the fact that pest’s effect on crops is not limited to the damage they cause to crops but is furthered by economic and ecological impacts involved. Therefore, the awakening of people has led to strategic developments of technologies effectively and safely applicable to control pest in standing crops and storage of crop produce. Among such technologies, the use of chemical pesticides is being steadily replaced by modern technique of integrated pest management. This system lays emphasis on minimizing the use of otherwise, hazardous pesticides and widening the scope of biopesticides, cultural practices, botanicals, insect growth hormones and pheromones in combination with Nuclear Polyhedrosis Virus (NPV) and Btk. For testing the efficacy of such control measures under field conditions and under laboratory environment, the biology of pests in relation to crop is essentially be studied. The relative resistance of different cultivars of vegetable crops to pest attack/infestation is also of paramount importance alongwith general variability in the responses of crop cultivars to control measures and also of pest to different pest management technologies.
The book contains properly processed, screened and relevant scientific information of societal relevance on diverse facets of applied and basic aspects of biology of pests and integrated pest management in vegetable crops like chilli, tomato, brinjal and tomato. Such information have laid proper emphasis on ecofriendly and economically viable control measures.

Insect Pests, Diseases & Post-Harvest Management of Horticultural Crops
L.C. De
Insects affect human beings by feeding on all kinds of plants including crop plants, forest trees, medicinal plants and even stored products causing huge amount of loss and also deterioration of food quality.In general, disease is an interaction among the host, parasite and the environment. Plant diseases may be due to pathogenic or non-pathogenic organisms. Pathogenic organisms include fungi, bacteria, fastidious vesicular bacteria, phytoplasmas, spiroplasmas, viruses, viroids, algae, protozoa and phanerogamic parasiteswhereas non-pathogenic diseases are influenced by environmental or non-living factors.
Post-harvest losses account for 27-30% of total food produced globally.Due to perishability in nature horticultural crops respire, transpire and ripen upon harvest thus deteriorating the food value of the produce for human consumption.Use of appropriate post-harvest technologies minimizes the post-harvest and storage losses; adds value to the produce, generates rural employment and renovate horti-based industries in the rural sector. Due to availability of a large number of traditional fruits and vegetables in India, there is need to develop protocols for primary processing and crop specific machineries.
In view of above, the present publication on ‘Insect Pests, Diseases and Post-harvest Management of Horticultural Crops’ is planned in 09 interesting chapters vividly highlighting various aspects covering insect pests and diseases of fruit and plantation crops, insect pests and diseases of vegetables and spices, insects pests and diseases of flowers, medicinal and aromatic plants, harvest and post-harvest handlings in fruit and plantation crops, harvest and post-harvest handlings in vegetable and spices, harvest & post-harvest handlings in flower, medicinal and aromatic plants, processing and value addition in fruit and plantation crops, processing and value addition in vegetables and spices and processing and value addition in flowers, medicinal and aromatic plants.

Breeding of Horticultural Crops
V. Ponnuswami
,
T. Sumathi
Horticultural crops are those that serve to fit the special food and aesthetic needs of humans. In horticultural crops, quality is supreme. While it is true that there is no arguing about taste, the fact of the matter is that many horticultural crop cultivars with unique qualities are so unique, admired, and appreciated that they become the basis for entire industries. Examples include the 'Bartlett' ('Williams') pear which dominates fresh fruit production and is almost the only cultivar used for processing, 'Hayward' kiwifruit, 'Smooth Cayenne' pineapple (for processing), 'Clementine' mandarin, and 'Dwarf Cavendish' banana. In horticultural crops, breeding objectives must be consumer directed because consumers make individual decisions about consumption and make choices between different cultivars and alternate crop species.
Innovations of individual breeders combined with further breeding efforts to increase usefulness and adaptation are the key to horticultural progress. It is clear that a way must be found to incorporate consumer satisfaction in the selection process. The contents includes l Objectives and Scope of Plant Breeding l Modes of Reproduction, Mating Systems & Their Significance on Population Structure l Modes of Pollination Control and Systems of Breeding
l Sterility and Incompatibility Systems l Genetic Properties of Populations Under Equilibrium; Changes in Gene & Genotypic Frequency, Genetic Load, Genetic Drift l Factors Affecting Gene and Genotypic Frequency l Factors of Evolution and Speciation, Importance of Biodiversity Conservation l Implication of Taxonomy In Breeding l Mendalian Inheritance and Non Mendalian Inheritance l Crop Improvement Methods – Plant Introduction and Selection; Through Hybridization; Pedigree Breeding; Bulk and Single Seed Descent Method; Mass Selection,Recurrent and Reciprocal Recurrent Selection; Back Cross Breeding l Development of F1 Hybrids l Synthetics and Composites l Mutation Breeding l Polyploidy Breeding l Breeding Methods for Perennial Horticultural Crops l Breeding Methods for Annual Horticultural Crops
l Breeding for Biotic Resistance l Breeding for Abiotic Stress Resistance l Molecular Markers,Genetic Fedelity Conformation and Markers Assisted Selection l Genetic Transformation Methods in Plants l Gene Silencing
It is hoped that this book will be useful to all stakeholders involved in breeding in Horticulture. The book is designed to prepare students for postgraduate school or careers in research and development of horticultural crops. ..more

Plant Pathogens and their Management
P. C. Trivedi
Because of plant diseases, production of agricultural crops gets affected and thereby quantities and quality of available food per person is reduced.

Integrated Management of Crop Diseases
Ashish Tripathi
Plant diseases cause enormous economic losses, both quantitatively and qualitatively. The disease scenario in the various agro climatic zones of India differs with variations of soil and climatic conditions. In the present agriculture, farmers rely heavily on the use of synthetic pesticides, which has aggravated many disease problems. The complete destruction of pathogen under field condition is not only impossible but also economically impractical. Hence the idea revolves around the tactical management of pathogens so as to keep the damage or loss below the economic threshold level. Integrated disease management (IDM) aims at prevention or reduction in the incidence or severity of the disease incited by the pathogen and involves use of all the possible management strategies with least cost and less damage to the environment and given sustainable crop production.
Integrated management of crop diseases, has been prepared by accumulating the chapters from authors having experiences in working with the respective crops. The book comprised of the importance of disease, etiology of the pathogen, epidemiology and integrated disease management of rice, pulses, soybean, rapeseed–mustard, vegetables, mango, little millet, spice crops, medicinal and aromatic plants, management post harvest diseases and plant parasitic nematode. This book would be useful for the undergraduate and post graduate students, teachers and scientists of the Universities dealing the crop disease management and extension workers engaged in designing and implementation of IDM programme to the farmers.

Ram Prakash
The development of scientific seed technology and nursery techniques is essential for the establishment of quality seedlings/saplings, germplasm conservation and to enhance forest productivity. The research on germination of forestry seeds has received increasing attention in recent years, since many tropical countries embarked on a large scale afforestation and reforestation programme. From quality seed collection to germination, seed needs greater attention for raising successful plantation. Seed technological and pathological approaches can contribute greatly to afforestation programmes and to improve forest productivity. Success of any major plantation programme depends, to a large extent, on the quality production of planting stock and, hence, it is necessary to set out standard methods and the techniques of seed technology. There is a tremendous scope for increasing research on quality seed collection, seed pretreatment, seed storage and tree improvement for advancement of seed technology. The development of seed technology of rare, threatened species is of paramount importance for bio-restoration and productivity enhancement of degraded forests. The threatened species have specific ecological niches and amplitude of distribution, and need the research on their eco-silvicultural requirements. The significance of seed technology needs to be appreciated to overcome the problems of climate change and to enhance productivity of tree species in the face of extensive destruction of habitats, species extinction and genetic erosion.
The priority areas covered in this present compilation are germplasm conservation, artificial seed production, physiology, pathology and bio-chemistry aspects for production of quality seedlings and enhancing the forest productivity. The book would be of vital use for researchers, foresters, industrialists, academicians and other user groups for improvement of forest productivity.

Diseases of Spices and their Biological Control
Rishikesh Meena
Spices are being used ever since the ancient civilizations of India, Mesopotamia and China. Spices denote all the aromatic or pungent substances of vegetable origin. They are used in original or grounded form for imparting flavour, aroma and pungency to food. Spices constitute an important group of agricultural commodity, which is virtually indispensable in culinary art. They are well known as appetizers or preservatives. Many of these have rich medicinal properties and are used in pharmaceutical industry especially in the preparation of ayurvedic medicines, perfumery, cosmetic products, religious rituals etc.
The protection of plant from pathogens include some biological controls (fungal and bacterial antagonists) but mainly the chemical control measures, that is, the use of chemicals for foliar sprays and dusts, seed treatments and control of post harvest diseases of the produce. Biological control involves protection of plants from pathogens by development of antagonistic microorganisms at the infection site before or after infection takes place.
The present book “Diseases of Spices and their Biological Control” incorporates the biocontrol of Chilli leaf curl diseas, Coriadrum stem gall disease, Powdry mildew disease of fenugreek, Wilt and blight disease of cumin and Leaf spot disease of turmeric. Biological control methods aim at improving the resistance of the host or at favouring microorganisms, antagonistic to the pathogen.Hence this method can be used to control the disease. Not only virus incidence and severity was reduced but the growth of plants and yields were also increased.
The book will be useful to students, researchers, plant pathologistys, botanists and Agriculturists working in the field of pathology and Biological Control.
