The IOBC-WPRS Working Group “Microbial and Nematode Control of Invertebrate Pests” covers all aspects of insect pathology and advances in microbial control tools for AgroForest challenges, consisting of the following subgroups: Fungi, Entomoparasitic nematodes, Viruses, Soil insect pests, Slugs and snails & Bacteria.
The upcoming meeting aims to review the latest scientific advances in the field of Microbial and Nematode Control of Invertebrate Pests and promote discussion and collaboration among researchers. The meeting will serve as a platform for sharing the latest advances in research, development, and application of Invertebrate Pathology and Microbial Control. We aim to facilitate the exchange of information, coordinate joint research efforts, and identify future research directions.
We encourage contributions that share knowledge and experiences related to specific groups of microorganisms used in microbial control.
