Biological control is an environmentally sound and effective means of reducing or mitigating pests and pest effects through the use of natural enemies. The aim of Biological Control is to promote this science and technology through publication of original research articles and reviews of research and theory. The journal devotes a section to reports on biotechnologies dealing with the elucidation and use of genes or gene products for the enhancement of biological control agents.The journal encompasses biological control of viral, microbial, nematode, insect, mite, weed, and vertebrate pests in agriculture, aquatic, forest, natural resource, stored product, and urban environments. Biological control of arthropod pests of human and domestic animals is also included. Ecological, molecular, and biotechnological approaches to the understanding of biological control are welcome.
生物防治是一种通过利用天敌来减少或减轻害虫和害虫影响的环境无害和有效的手段。《生物防治》的宗旨是通过发表原创性的研究文章和研究与理论评论来促进这一科学和技术的发展。该杂志专门有一个章节报道生物技术，涉及基因或基因产物的阐明和使用，以增强生物防治剂。该杂志涵盖农业、水产、森林、自然资源、储藏产品和城市环境中病毒、微生物、线虫、昆虫、螨、杂草和脊椎动物害虫的生物防治。还包括对人类和家畜的节肢动物害虫的生物防治。欢迎采用生态学、分子学和生物技术的方法来理解生物防治。
