1 Conservation Biological Control: Can it Work in the Cotton System? Conservation Biological Control Manipulation of the environment to favor natural enemies, either by removing or mitigating adverse factors or by providing lacking requisites. DeBach 1974 Dr. Steven E. Naranjo, USDA-ARS Biological Control - Approaches *Conservation* Conservation Biological Control Reduce Direct Mortality Selective insecticides Ecological Physiological Cultural practices Approaches Provide Resources Refugia Cover & inter-crops Landscape pattern Strip harvesting Integration Classical Augmentation After Rabb, Stinner & van den Bosch 1976 Controlling Secondary Enemies Hyperparasitism Intraguild predation Manipulating Host-Plant Attributes Plant breeding Transgenics Cultural practices Conservation Biological Control Survey & Identification of Potentially Important Natural Enemies Components Study of Biology & Ecology; Determination of Factors Constraining or Enhancing Biological Control Survey Is there potential for natural biological control?
