Abstract | ||||
Biological control is defined as the breeding and protection of organisms against other living organisms (Agrios, 1997).For example, some insects, such as the beetle Smicronyx jungermannia and Melana gramyza fly,Many insects were hired in the field of biological control to eradicate several jungles (Fowler et al., 2012).Some species of bacteria have also been used to control the bush. CAMPERICO® is a bacterium bioherbicide,Xanthomonas campestris pv. Poae was developed and recorded in Japan as a biochemist of the Poa annua weed in Japan's golf courses (Charudattan, 2005).Viruses have also been used in biocontrol, such as the Cusumber mosaic virus, which affects certain types of viruses (Morrison et al., 1998).For example, the Triketone herbicide was used as a natural extract from natural sources, a botanical plant-toxic vegetable product (Frost and his group, 2003)Al-Mohammadi (2001) found that the water extract of the sorghum halepense has a significant effect on the killing of the cuscuta that is present on the crop after 45 days of spraying.The fungus was also used in the biological control. Among the common fungi used in the biological control are the fungi Alternaria spp, Collecotricum spp, spp Geotrichum and Fusarium spp. And Chysonilla spp (Boyette et al.; 2012). | ||||
