Pesticidal prospectives of chitinolytic bacteria in agricultural pest management

2018-01-01

Abstract excerpt

Chitin metabolism is an essential life sustaining activity of phytophagous insects, phytopathogenic fungi and parasitic nematode which are the major limiting factors of agricultural production systems. Diverse bacteria, although non-chitinous life forms, are reported to degrade native chitin associated with the pestiferous organisms thereby exerting pathogenicity. So, the deployment of chitinolytic bacteria, assoc...
