Pestiphages (Latin: pestis «pest» + greek. φαγεῖν «to eat»)^[1] — introduced organisms, that destroy pest organisms in agroecosystems. Pestiphages are an important biological component of agrobiodiversity and have a substantial role in ecologization of agriculture. Pest organisms of agrocenosis and pestiphages are in detrimental type of biological interaction. The inhibitive influence of pestiphages have bioregulated the populations of pest organisms. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Hovsep Grigoryan (talk • contribs) 15:38, 1 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
