DOI: 10.1002/ps.8238
Abstract: Attract‐and‐kill (AK) beads are biological, microbial insecticides developed as an alternative to synthetic soil insecticides. For wireworm control, beads are based on calcium alginate/starch co‐encapsulating the carbon dioxide (CO2) producing yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae H205 as… read more here.
