1. bioremediation of contaminated soils
2. reclamation of wastelands
3. gene transfer in higher plants
4. biological control of soil-borne plant pathogens
Select the correct group of biocontrol agents:

2. Bacillus thuringiensis. Tobacco mosaic virus, Aphids
3. Trichoderma, Baculovirus, Bacillus thuringiensis
4. Oscilatoria, Rhizobium, Trichoderma
The free-living fungus Trichoderma can be used for:
1. killing insects
2. biological control of plant diseases
3. controlling butterfly caterpillars
4. producing antibiotics
For a biocontrol agent to be part of an integrated pest management, it should be:
1. species-specific and symbiotic
2. free living and broad spectrum
3. narrow spectrum and symbiotic
4. species-specific and inactive on non-target organisms
