Fungal volatile organic compounds show promise as potent molluscicides
Pest Management Science, Volume 75, Issue 12, Page 3392-3404, December 2019., 2019 Slugs and snails avoid plants treated with conidia and VOCs of the insect pathogenic fungus Metarhizium brunneum. The VOCs show promise as mollusc repellents or molluscicides. Abstract BACKGROUND Slugs and snails constitute major crop pests. Withdrawal of metaldehyde has prompted a search for more environmentally friendly yet fast acting molluscicides.
