Beauveria bassiana strain ATCC 74040 (Naturalis®), a valuable tool for the control of the cherry fruit fly (Rhagoletis cerasi) [PDF]
Naturalis® is a bioinsecticide based on living conidiospores of the naturally occuring Beauveria bassiana strain ATCC 74040. The entomopathogenic fungus acts primarily by contact: once attached to the insect’s cuticle, the conidiospores germinate ...

A survey of natural parasitism of mirid bugs by parasitoids on apples and pears in Norway [PDF]
Mirid bugs are important pests in both integrated and organic fruit production. In a survey in 2006 the proportion of mirids parasitized by parasitoids was investigated in 18 Norwegian orchards.

Effect of Honeydew Secreted by Aphis gossypii Glover (Hemiptera: Aphididae) on Fungal Growth
Honeydew is a sugar-rich, sticky substance secreted by many plant-feeding insect species from the order of Hemiptera and Lepidoptera. Aphids (Hemiptera: Aphididae), on the other hand, feed on nitrogen-poor, carbohydrate-rich phloem sap and excrete excess

Compatibility of entomopathogenic fungi Beauveria bassiana and Metarhizium anisopliae with some pesticides [PDF]
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.

Transformations of Steroids by Beauveria bassiana
The course of transformations of testosterone and its derivatives, including compounds with an additional C1,C2 double bond and/or a 17α-methyl group, a 17β-acetyl group or without a 19-methyl group, by a Beauveria bassiana culture was investigated. The fungi promoted hydroxylation of these compounds at position 11α, oxidation of the 17β-hydroxyl group,

The flea beetle's glucosinolate‐based chemical defense fails to protect larvae from nematode infection. However, the defense inhibits the nematode's symbiotic bacteria, thereby potentially impairing nematode reproduction and biocontrol success. Abstract BACKGROUND The efficacy of entomopathogenic nematodes (EPNs) in the biological control of insect ...

Escovopsis primorosea LBM 277 efficiently produced proteases, β‐1,3‐glucanases and chitinases under submerged fermentation using Leucoagaricus gongylophorus cell walls and Mandels complex. RSM‐BBD optimization significantly increased enzyme activity. The enzymatic cocktail remained stable for 30 days at room temperature and pH 4–6, aligning with the ...
