Behavioural responses of peach potato aphid, Myzus persicae Sulzer (Hemiptera: Aphididae), to entomopathogenic fungi infected conspecifics

Agricultural and Forest Entomology, EarlyView.
Myzus persicae showed no detectable behavioural response to Beauveria bassiana‐colonised agar alone. Aphids spent significantly more time in odour fields containing EPF‐infected conspecifics than healthy aphids, agar or blank air. EPF infection may alter host‐associated odours, suggesting pathogen‐mediated cues could influence aphid behaviour and ...

Anatomical and Histological Descriptions of the Male Reproductive System of the Alfalfa Weevil of Hypera postica (Gyllenhal, 1813) (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) Using Light and Scanning Electron Microscopies

Acta Zoologica, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Features of the reproductive organs, such as the number of testicular follicles, testis colour and the morphology of the glands, can be used as systematic characters. For this purpose, this paper was the first description of the male reproductive system anatomy and histology of Hypera postica (Gyllenhal, 1813) (Coleoptera: Curculionidae), a ...

Compatibility of Beauveria bassiana with acaricides [PDF]

Neotropical Entomology, 2004
The in vitro compatibility of the entomopathogenic fungus Beauveria bassiana (Bals.) Vuil. with 12 acaricide formulations was evaluated. The active ingredients Clorfenapyr, Fenpyroximate, Amitraz, Acrinathrin, Hexythiazox, Abamectin, Pyridine, Dimethoate, Pyridaphethion, Fenbutatin Oxide, Azocyclotin and Cyhexatin were tested in three different ...

Exploiting Native Biodiversity for Invasive Species Management: The Case of Exorista larvarum as a Natural Enemy of the Invasive Box Tree Moth Cydalima perspectalis

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
The investigations evaluated the performance of the native parasitoid Exorista larvarum (L.) on last instar Cydalima perspectalis (Walker) larvae, using the factitious host Galleria mellonella (L.) as a control. Laboratory bioassays were conducted using no‐choice and choice (1:1 and 5:5) experimental designs.

Deciphering Role of Endophytes in Plant Defences and Biotic Stress Resilience Across Families

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Plant families generate distinct repertoires of specialised metabolites that govern their biotic interactions. Endophytes strengthen host plant defence mechanisms and tolerance to biotic challenges by upregulating metabolite biosynthesis, modifying precursor compounds into more potent forms, or by directly synthesising analogous defence ...

Microbial volatile compounds enhance drought resilience and productivity in CAM and C3 crops

Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Microbial volatiles EV and CAMP, derived from Bacillus spp. and Beauveria pseudobassiana associated with agaves and cacti, respectively, enhance drought resilience and productivity in Agave tequilana and tomato. Abstract Plants interact with their associated microbiota through diverse chemical cues, including microbial volatile organic compounds (mVOCs)

DISTRIBUTION OF ENTOMOPATHOGENIC FUNGI IN SOILS OF CATTLE FARMS AND FACTORS ASSOCIATED WITH THEIR PRESENCE IN THE MEXICAN TROPICS

Tropical and Subtropical Agroecosystems, 2020
Background. Ticks are one of the main threats that affect cattle production in Mexico. In the ecosystems, these parasites are naturally regulated by microorganisms such as entomopathogenic fungi (EPF) and bacteria, wich are capable of causing them ...
