Pathogens of Invertebrates Application in Biological Control and Transmission Mechanisms

Invertebrate pathology, like medical and veterinary pathology, for many years has been spearheaded by practical applications al­ though in more recent times many investigators have elected to focus their attention on basic mechanisms and the elucidation of basic phenomena. Although Elie Metachnikoff...
