The use of entomopathogenic nematodes in pest control strategies, along with bacteria, fungi, and actinomycetes, is a promising approach to combating plant parasitic nematodes. The book Beneficial Nematodes and Nematode Antagonistic Bioagents is divided into two sections. The first section (chapters 1 to 16) covers the isolation, identification, molecular characterization, mass multiplication, formulations, and shelf life of bacteria, fungi, and actinomycetes. The second section (chapters 17 to 24) focuses on the isolation, identification, mass culturing of insect hosts, and mass multiplication, formulations, and field potential of entomopathogenic nematodes against economically important insect pests.
