"BioControl" is a fully refereed international journal (formerly published as "Entomophaga" until the end of 1997).
It includes original papers on basic and applied research in all aspects of biological control of invertebrate, vertebrate and weed pests, and plant diseases. Subject areas covered in BioControl comprise biology and ecology of organisms for biological control, and various facets of their use including any biological means of control for integrated pest management (IPM) such as plant resistance, pheromones and intercropping. IOBC/WPRS individual and supporting members can subscribe to BioControl at substantially reduced cost. Institutional members have the subscription included in their membership fee.

50 years of successful activities in biological control and sustainable agriculture
The International Organisation for Biological Control (IOBC) celebrates its 50th anniversary. What started in 1956 with the first meeting of European pioneers in biological control evolved into an independent organisation with world-wide activities (www.iobc-global.org). IOBC’s expertise covers now all aspects of sustainable crop protection in major annual and perennial crops. To commemorate this milestone, a book on the colourful history of this organisation has been published.
