- Book 15 of 16: Progress in Biological Control
Biological control has become an attractive alternative strategy for the control of plant diseases to reduce the excessive use of agrochemicals and its health hazards. But a significant gap still exists between basic research involving the discovery of a biocontrol agent and its development and implementation under commercial conditions. Because BCAs (unlike chemical a.m.) need to establish, colonize, survive and perform their metabolic activity to control diseases. In order to move a biocontrol agent from the laboratory to the market place requires many different disciplines and people with a variety of expertise. Research can stimulate the development of commercial biocontrol agents.

Prof. Magan completed his BSc Hons (Botany) and MSc Plant Pathology at Exeter University U.K. (1973-1977) and his PhD in 1982 (Rothamsted Research, external student Reading University). In 2013, he was awarded a D.Sc by Cranfield for his research contributions in ecophysiology of fungi. He holds the Chair in Applied Mycology at Cranfield University. He has carried out research on fungal pathogens/mycotoxigenic fungi and their control in the context of the food security/safety agenda for 35+ years. His current research includes molecular ecology/ecophysiology of mycotoxigenic fungi and fungal pathogens in food production systems including biocontrol and integrated prevention strategies. His focus in biocontrol is on resilience and production/formulation of microorganisms for both pest/pathogen control especially related to existing and future climate change-related scenarios. He has published widely in these research areas with 300+ peer-reviewed Journal papers, written 30+ Book Chapters and edited a number of Books.
