in order to complete the microbial control of the sawthoothed beetle by the fungus beauvaria bassiana (isolate 441c) in ipm program of stored date, 9 edible and commercial vegetable oils including canola, soybean, sesame, corn, coconut, grape seed, olive, sunflower and almond were investigated to formulate the fungus. results showed that b. bassiana formulated with sesame oil was the most suita...

The spores have formed by fungi and these spores have developed characteristics that enable them to cope with the stresses of survival and disintegration. In the distribution of fungus spores in the atmosphere, it is important in the meteorological factors as well as the features of the fungus. The meteorological factors that play a role in the distribution of fungus spores are temperature, hum...

entomopathogenic fungi may be affected by pesticides used to protect crop plants. the in vitro compatibility of beauveria bassiana and metarhizium anisopliae with three fungicides and 16 insecticides was evaluated. the formulations of pesticides were tested in three concentrations (mean concentration (mc), half mc and twice the mc). all tested fungicides, at three concentrations, were incompati...

background: considering to the high distribution of cockroaches as urban pests, the efficacy of different formula­tions of metarhizium anisopliae strain iran 437c were assessed against the brown-banded cockroach, supella longi­palpa f. under laboratory and field conditions. methods: metarhizium anisopliae isolates were screened with immersing adults of the brown-banded cockroachs in aqueous sus...
