The infectivity of the entomopathogenic fungus Beauveria bassiana to insecticide-resistant and susceptible Anopheles arabiensis mosquitoes at two different temperatures [PDF]

, 2010
BACKGROUND: Control of the major African malaria vector species continues to rely extensively on the application of residual insecticides through indoor house spraying or bed net impregnation.

Exploiting the behaviour of wild malaria vectors to achieve high infection with fungal biocontrol agents [PDF]

, 2012
Background Control of mosquitoes that transmit malaria has been the mainstay in the fight against the disease, but alternative methods are required in view of emerging insecticide resistance.

Fungal entomopathogens: new insights on their ecology [PDF]

, 2009
An important mechanism for insect pest control should be the use of fungal entomopathogens. Even though these organisms have been studied for more than 100 y, their effective use in the field remains elusive.

First report of the infection of insecticide-resistant malaria vector mosquitoes with an entomopathogenic fungus under field conditions. [PDF]

, 2011
BACKGROUND: Insecticide-resistant mosquitoes are compromising the ability of current mosquito control tools to control malaria vectors. A proposed new approach for mosquito control is to use entomopathogenic fungi.

Molecular Analysis of Hypervirulent Somatic Hybrids of the Entomopathogenic Fungi Beauveria bassiana and Beauveria sulfurescens [PDF]

Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 1998
ABSTRACT Protoplast fusion of diauxotrophic mutants of a Beauveria bassiana entomopathogenic strain (Bb28) and a Beauveria sulfurescens toxinogenic strain (Bs2) produced hybrids which were significantly different from the parents in pathogenicity.

Efficacy of entomopathogenic fungal filters additioned with silicon nanoparticles on the mortality of Tetranychus urticae Koch (Acari: Tetranychidae)

Tropical and Subtropical Agroecosystems
Background: Tetranychus urticae is considered a very destructive pest, resistance has been documented due to poor management of agrochemicals, which has motivated interest in developing acaricides with alternative modes of action to mitigate this problem.
