Biopreparations for plant protection in Siberia: application and enhancement of activity
Main Article Content
Abstract
This review is devoted to the most widespread biological preparations used for ecologically safe control of insect pests and plant diseases in Siberia. Special attention is given to the application of biopreparations on vegetable and soft fruit crops. The necessity of enhancement of control agent activity and relevant formulations is discussed. In most cases, data obtained by Siberian authors have been presented. Possible ways to enhance efficiency of biopreparations using the mixtures based on biocontrol agents of different origin or on the agents with nontoxic enhancers are shown. The role of host plant in the efficacy of biopreparations is emphasized, especially for future research.
