Maintenance of human, animal, and plant pathogen vectors

"The book deals with diverse subject areas, and contains descriptions of standard, as well as highly specialized methods used by medical, veterinary, entomology, and plant pathology experts. The artificial borders between the diverse field have been bridged to acquaint researchers with the work and methods of investigators in distant, and yet related domains. The familiarity with the different techniques and materials used for a particular group of vectors often can be shared and applied to other vector groups. Pitfalls and difficulties encountered during laboratory maintenance of vectors, safety measures to prevent contamination, and escape of insects, ticks, nematodes, and fugal vectors have been stressed. The chapters are well documented with tables, illustrations, and up-to-date bibliographies." "This volume will be of interest to medical and veterinary researchers, microbiologists, entomologists, virologists, parasitologists, plant pathologists, geneticists, biocontrol specialists, as well as graduate students in related fields of biomedical, veterinary, and agricultural research."--BOOK JACKET.le in hum.
