For example, food production relies on synthetic, industrial and non-sustainable products for managing pests, weeds and diseases of crops. Sustainable farming requires approaches to managing these agricultural constraints that are more environmentally benign and work with rather than against nature. Increasing pressure on synthetic products has reinvigorated efforts to identify alternative pest management options, including plant-based solutions that are environmentally benign and can be tailored to different farmers' needs, from commercial to small holder and subsistence farming. Botanical insecticides and pesticidal plants can offer a novel, effective and more sustainable alternative to synthetic products for controlling pests, diseases and weeds. This Special Issue reviews and reports the latest developments in plant-based pesticides from identification of bioactive plant chemicals, mechanisms of activity and validation of their use in horticulture and disease vector control. Other work reports applications in rice weeds, combination biopesticides and how chemistry varies spatially and influences the effectiveness of botanicals in different locations. Three reviews assess wider questions around the potential of plant-based pest management to address the global challenges of new, invasive and established crop pests and as-yet underexploited pesticidal plants. 517 $aPesticidal Plants 610 $aacaricide 610 $aagro-ecological intensification 610 $aanise 610 $aantifeedant 610 $aaphids 610 $abarnyard grass 610 $abiopesticide 610 $abiopesticides 610 $abotanical active substances 610 $abotanical insecticides 610 $abotanical pesticide 610 $abotanical pesticides 610 $abotanicals 610 $achemotype 3 610 $aColorado potato beetle 610 $acorn 610 $acover crops 610 $adeguelin 610 $aencapsulation 610 $aentomopathogenic fungi 610 $aessential oils 610 $afennel 610 $afoliar fertiliser 610 $agrowth inhibitor 610 $ainduced systemic response 610 $ainsect behavior 610 $ainsect pest 610 $ainsecticidal activity 610 $ainsects 610 $aintegrated pest management 610 $ainvasive species 610 $aItalian ryegrass 610 $akaranja 610 $aleaf disc assay 610 $alimonoid 610 $aMelia volkensii 610 $aMeliaceae 610 $aneem 610 $aoil emulsion entrapment 610 $aorganic farming 610 $aorganic pesticide 610 $aparasitoid 610 $apest management 610 $apesticidal plant 610 $apests 610 $aphenylalanine 610 $aphytotoxic activity 610 $aprospects 610 $apyrethrum 610 $apyrrolizidine alkaloid 610 $aresistance 610 $arice 610 $arotenoids 610 $arutin 610 $aSenecio fistulosus 610 $asesquiterpene 610 $aspatial-temporal variation 610 $aspray drying 610 $astructure-activity relationships 610 $asurvival analysis 610 $asustainable agriculture 610 $asynergism 610 $aTetranychus urticae 610 $atryptophan 610 $aweed control 610 $aY-tube olfactometer 700 $aIsman $b Murray B$4auth$091917 702 $aStevenson$b Philip C$4auth 702 $aBelmain$b Steven R$4auth 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910404077703321 996 $aPesticidal Plants: From Smallholder Use to Commercialisation$93020450 997 $aUNINA
