| Title |
Virulence management in biocontrol agents |
| Date |
2002 |
| Description |
Although biological control is founded upon the virulence of natural enemies to the targeted pests, there has been little effort to understand how this might change, let alone to manage it. Frank Fenner and colleagues can be credited with being the first (and last!) to monitor changes in virulence of a biological control agent, namely the myxoma virus used to control rabbits in Australia (Fenner and Fantini 1999). |
