486 Biotechnological Approaches for Pest Management and Ecological Sustainability
management strategy, and have a bearing on the environment and human health. The use
of high-resolution molecular markers is likely to increase their application for diagnosis of
insect pests, pest invasions, traceability of introduction of parasitoids and predators, direction
of insect migration, host selection behavior, and molecular ecology.
