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.

The occurrence and preference of Botanophila flies (Diptera: Anthomyiidae) for particular species of Epichloë fungi infecting wild grasses

European Journal of Entomology, 2013
Specific associations between species frequently occur in ecological interactions. The aim of this study was to determine the preferences of anthomyiid flies of the genus Botanophila for particular species of fungi as sites for laying eggs and as food ...

Bio-Intensive Tactics for the Management of Invasive Fall Armyworm for Organic Maize Production

Plants, 2023
Spodoptera frugiperda (J.E. Smith) (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) is an invasive pest native to the American continent. The present study focused on bio-intensive tactics like intercropping, using natural enemies, botanical insecticides and biopesticides for ...

Silicon and Epichloë‐endophyte defences in a model temperate grass diminish feeding efficiency and immunity of an insect folivore

Functional Ecology, Volume 37, Issue 12, Page 3177-3192, December 2023., 2023
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Plants deploy diverse anti‐herbivore defences which reduce feeding and performance of herbivores. Temperate grasses use silicon (Si) accumulation and Epichloë‐endophytes for physical and chemical (i.e. endophytic‐alkaloids) defence against insect herbivores.

High‐affinity iron uptake is required for optimal Epichloë festucae colonization of Lolium perenne and seed transmission

Molecular Plant Pathology, Volume 24, Issue 11, Page 1430-1442, November 2023., 2023
In Epichloë festucae, both reductive iron assimilation and siderophore iron uptake are required for the maintenance of iron metabolism, fungal growth, and its symbiotic relationship with perennial ryegrass. Abstract Epichloë festucae uses a siderophore‐mediated system to acquire iron, which is important to maintain endophyte–grass symbioses.

The Effect of Grain Type on Virulence of Entomopathogenic Fungi Against Stored Product Pests

Applied Sciences, 2020
Fungal virulence is multifaceted and dependent on multiple abiotic factors. The present study represents an investigation of the effect of one such abiotic factor, that of the grain type, on the insecticidal action of three entomopathogenic fungal ...
