摘要: Abstract Genetics is a powerful means of enhancing the beneficial traits biological control agents. This exemplified by enhancement tolerance entomopathogenic nematode (EPN) Heterorhabditis bacteriophora towards environmental extremes. The genetic approaches taken include selection (for heat and resistance to nematicides); screening for natural isolates displaying tolerance; hybridization (aided markers) mutagenesis generating mutants either desired or marker mutations. Genetic engineering most promising tool in success transformation EPN opens way transgenic nematodes carrying genes conferring various
