(Springer Heidelberg, 2013-05)
The objective of this study was to isolate and identify native entomopathogenic fungi from different components of maize agroecosystem, and evaluate their virulence against Tribolium confusum, Rhyzopertha dominica, and ...
Susceptibility of different life stages of Blattella germanica (Blattodea: Blattellidae) and Periplaneta fuliginosa (Blattodea: Blattidae) to entomopathogenic fungi
(Excellent Publishers, 2014-12)
The susceptibility of nymphs and adults of the German cockroach, Blattella germanica Linnaeus (Blattodea: Blattellidae) and the smokybrown cockroach, Periplaneta fuliginosa Serville (Blattodea: Blattidae) to Argentinian ...
Fungal pathogens as classical biological control agents against arthropods
(SPRINGER, 2010)
Fungal entomopathogens have been used more frequently than other types of pathogens for classical biological control. Among 136 programs using different groups of arthropod pathogens, 49.3% have introduced fungal pathogens ...
Application pressure in boom sprayer and efficiency of commercial fungal bioinsecticides
(Empresa Brasil Pesq Agropec, 2004-12-01)
Fungal biopesticides are applied with conventional sprayers and this equipment may be inappropriate, and therefore affect field control efficacy of biopesticides. The objective of this research was to find out if the usual ...
Use of entomopathogenic fungi combined with biorational insecticides to control Dichroplus maculipennis (Orthoptera: Acrididae: Melanoplinae) under semi-field conditions.
(Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2015-05)
Grasshoppers are among the invertebrate herbivores that cause most economic losses in grasslands throughout Argentina’s Pampas and parts of Patagonia. Chemical insecticides remain the sole option for grasshopper control ...
Entomopathogenic fungi: Are polisporic isolates more pathogenic than monosporic strains?
(Sociedad Entomológica Argentina, 2017-12)
Currently only monosporic strains from several entomopathogenic fungi have been selected and used for mass production and bioinsecticide manufacturing worldwide. The main reasons for the use of single spore instead of ...
