The present study investigated the prevalence rate of Cryptosporidium parvum as a cause of diarrhea. We examined 942 stools of unidentified reasons occurring in patients in whom no immunosuppression had been detected. We examined the stools for Cryptosporidium parvum via modified acid-fast staining. The clinical records of all of the positive patients were then analyzed. Nine (1%) of the stools...

The citrus industry is challenged by numerous arthropods, yet extensive research has not been conducted to determine the potential use of entomopathogenic fungi as endophytes in pest management strategies. Two inoculation methods (i.e., soil drench and foliar spray) using a suspension Beauveria bassiana (strain PPRI 5339 contained Velifer®) containing 4 × 107 conidia mL−1 0.01% Tween 80 were on...
