Persistence of Metarhizium (Hypocreales: Clavicipitaceae) and Beauveria bassiana (Hypocreales: Clavicipitaceae) in Tobacco Soils and Potential as Biocontrol Agents of Spodoptera litura (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) [PDF]
Entomopathogenic fungi (EPF), such as Metarhizium spp. and Beauveria bassiana, are widely used in the biocontrol of many species of insect pests. Tobacco is an economically important crop in Guangdong Province of China, but insect pests, such as Spodoptera litura Fabricius, are a major threat to production.
