This book “Host-plant Resistance to Insect Pests” is the Entomology course materials used for the M.Sc. and Ph.D. students under the teaching programme in Agricultural Universities. This book is very helpful to cover your syllabus. This compilation of book is to improve your basic knowledge. I am very confident that the text book would be a very good source materials for the students of Agriculture and allied subjects.

Mr. Dwarka is Research Scholar, perusing Ph.D. in Agricultural Entomology at Jawaharlal Nehru Krishi Vishwa Vidyalaya, Jabalpur, Madhya Pradesh, India. He did his post-graduation in Agricultural Entomology from Jawaharlal Nehru Krishi Vishwa Vidyalaya, Jabalpur, Madhya Pradesh, India. He has qualified ICAR-NET and received different awards from different professional societies and institutes. He has published several research papers, review paper, book chapter, popular and articles to his credit.

Ms. Babli Ph.D. Research Scholar, in Plant Pathology at Rajmata Vijayaraje Scindia Krishi Vishwa Vidyalaya, Gwalior, M.P. She received her M.Sc. (Ag.) in Plant Pathology discipline from Jawaharlal Nehru Krishi Vishwa Vidyalaya, Jabalpur, M.P. in the year 2019 & B.Sc. (Ag.) from Rafi Ahmed Kidwai College of Agriculture, Sehore, M.P. in the year 2017. She was awarded by multiples professional societies and institutes for remarkable work in plant pathology. She has published several research papers, book chapters, popular articles and presented research in National and International scientific forum.
