Potential of endophytic Beauveria bassiana against Coraebus (Coleoptera: Buprestidae) oak borers
This study demonstrates that an endophytic, oak‐associated strain of Beauveria bassiana exhibits adaptations to Quercus plants and potential against Coraebus boring beetles, supported by distinctive biological traits. Abstract BACKGROUND Oak borers in the genus Coraebus, including the bark‐ and the wood‐boring beetles C. florentinus and C. undatus, are

Investigations to date, however, have focused on a single species, Tetraopes tetrophthalmus, which feeds on the ...
