Not AvailableIndiscriminate use of pesticides and insecticides has caused an alarming threat to both environment as well as human health. This has diverted the attention of scientists to find out natural enemies of insect pests. Entomopathogenic nematodes have displayed a satisfactory potential in this regard calming to get rid of insect pests through eco-friendly and highly specific approach. Ease in their mass production and high compatibility with other control agents has raised their importance in integrated pest management. Molecular insights related to symbiotic association between nematode and bacteria in their gut, specific markers, genomic and proteomic studies have further explored many dimensions which will serve the field in near future. These biocontrol agents have been accepted worldwide which is evident from huge literature availability related to them.Not Availabl
