چکیده

Nematophagous fungi are potential agents to be employed for biological control of helminthes. The ovicidal activity of the nematophagous fungi Pochonia chlamydosporia (isolates VC1 and VC4) and Paecilomyces lilacinus on egg capsules of Dipylidium caninum, a cestoda parasite of dogs, cats and men, was evaluated on Petri dishes cultures. One thousand of D. caninum egg capsules were placed onto Petri dishes containing 2% water-agar medium and grown fungal isolates, and also onto dishes without fungi, as control. The ovicidal activity of these fungi was evaluated after 5, 10 and 15 days. After the beginning of the interaction and at the end of the experiment, fungi P. chlamydosporia and Paecilomyces lilacinus demonstrated ovicidal activity (p<0.05) when compared to the control. Pochonia. chlamydosporia showed ovicidal activity of 49.0% (isolate VC1) and 41.9% (isolate VC4), while ovicidal activity of Paecilomyces lilacinus was 42.7% after fi fteen days of interaction. The fungi Pochonia chlamydosporia and Paecilomyces lilacinus showed ovicidal activity on Dipylidium caninum egg capsules, thus it could be used as potential biological controllers of this cestoda.

Use of a novel two-stage cultivation method to determine the effects of environmental factors on the growth and sporulation of several biocontrol fungi

To supply essential information for improving mass production and biocontrol effi cacy, two-stage cultivation on agar plates was used to evaluate the environmental conditions affecting mycelial growth and sporulation of seven biocontrol fungi. Maximum growth and sporulation occurred on acid media for Paecilomyces (Pa.) lilacinus IPC-P, Pochonia (Po.) chlamydosporia HSY-12-14, and Lecanicillium ...

Predatory activity of chlamydospores of the fungus Pochonia chlamydosporia on Toxocara canis eggs under laboratory conditions Atividade predatória de clamidósporos do fungo Pochonia chlamydosporia sobre ovos de Toxocara canis em condições laboratoriais

The objective of this study was to use chlamydospores of the fungus Pochonia chlamydosporia (isolates VC1 and VC4) against Toxocara canis eggs in a 15-day in vitro assay. One thousand T. canis eggs were placed in Petri dishes containing 2% water agar medium with different concentrations of chlamydospores (1,000, 10,000 or 100,000) of each fungal isolate of P. chlamydosporia (treated groups) and...

Fungal egg-parasites of plant-parasitic nematodes from Spanish soils.

We have investigated the presence of fungal egg-parasites in Spanish soils with plant endoparasitic nematodes. Nine out of 68 samples (13%) yielded fungal parasites. The most common (seven strains) was Pochonia chlamydosporia var. chlamydosporia (= Verticillium chlamydosporium var. chlamydosporium), but Lecanicillium lecanii (= Verticillium lecanii) and Paecilomyces lilacinus were also found. M...
