<scp>NezhNPV</scp>, a new biocontrol agent for <scp><i>Nesodiprion zhejiangensis</i></scp> Zhou & Xiao (Hymenoptera: Diprionidae), an emerging forest pest
The combined results from our field trials, coupled with morphological and genomic characterization clearly demonstrate the bioactivity of NezhNPV. This gammabaculovirus may be included in pest management practices against N. zhejiangensis as a novel biocontrol agent. © 2024 The Author(s).
