Overview
Insects have one of the widest distributions on the globe because they have adapted to extreme ranges of environments. This book presents current entomological research, where molecular tools help to advance traditional ecological studies. Chapters include insect-insect and insect-plant interactions, mechanisms of environmental adaption, and use of insect biotechnology in pest and vector control. The book may help to combine powerful methods in molecular biology with exciting issues in ecology in order to understand why insects become "masters of survival."
