The aim of COST Action 842 was to promote research on entomopathogenic fungi in the order of the Entomophthorales. A seperate working group also focused on the development of biological methods to control pest insects and mites feeding on stored products. The booklet provides an overview on this interesting and biologically and economically important group of fungi.

The purpose of this new study, which originates from COST Action A 21, is to take forward the existing materials contained in Mapping Restorative Justice and in other European overviews. This new book provides a deeper and more reflective account of the genesis and current significance of restorative justice provisions within 14 selected European countries. Each country contribution therefore addresses in great detail the background and contents of its legislation, both at primary and subordinate level. The authors in this book, not only evaluate their legal structures against applicable international standards, but they also analyse the social and political function of restorative justice legislation and they reflect on how different types of regulation further shape and determine restorative justice principles and practices.

The handbook offers a unique collection of proven methods covering a wide range of areas of rhizosphere research.

Since mid-1990s, severe dieback of ash started to spread over most European countries. This emerging disease resulted in massive tree mortality and threatens the existence of ash trees over the continent. The causal agent of the disease is 

Hymenoscyphus fraxineus

, an alien and invasive fungus that originates from Far East Asia, and most likely entered Europe with imported ash trees.
