Entomological Research
Mosquitoes around the world spread diseases like malaria, dengue, zika, lymphatic filariasis and arboviruses, which are dangerous to human health and the economy. Eventually, mosquitoes develop resistance to synthetic chemical insecticides and, moreover,

Insect Immunity to Entomopathogenic Fungi
2016The study of infection and immunity in insects has achieved considerable prominence with the appreciation that their host defense mechanisms share many fundamental characteristics with the innate immune system of vertebrates. Studies on the highly tractable model organism Drosophila in particular have led to a detailed understanding of conserved innate

Entomopathogenic fungi to control bark beetles: A review of ecological recommendations.
Pest Management Science, 2021There is considerable interest in applying entomopathogenic fungi as a biological control to limit insect populations due to their low environmental and human applicator impacts.

Advances in Genomics of Entomopathogenic Fungi
2016Fungi are the commonest pathogens of insects and crucial regulators of insect populations. The rapid advance of genome technologies has revolutionized our understanding of entomopathogenic fungi with multiple Metarhizium spp. sequenced, as well as Beauveria bassiana, Cordyceps militaris, and Ophiocordyceps sinensis among others.

Genetically Engineering Entomopathogenic Fungi
2016Entomopathogenic fungi have been developed as environmentally friendly alternatives to chemical insecticides in biocontrol programs for agricultural pests and vectors of disease. However, mycoinsecticides currently have a small market share due to low virulence and inconsistencies in their performance.

Susceptibility of Brevipalpus phoenicis to entomopathogenic fungi
Experimental and Applied Acarology, 2006The pathogenicity of 52 isolates from several fungus species was studied for the false spider mite Brevipalpus phoenicis. In addition, the main stages during the course of infection by Hirsutella thompsonii, by far the most virulent pathogen, were studied by means of light and electron microscopy.

Taxonomy of entomopathogenic fungi
1988Cooke (1892) listed four groups of fungi parasitic upon insects: Cordyceps and allied ‘Isaria’ conidial states (anamorphs); Entomophthorales; Laboulbeniales; and opportunistic fungi, such as species of Cladosporium and Penicillium. As previously mentioned, we exclude the Laboulbeniales, since they are not implicated in host mortality, although it is ...

Entomopathogenic fungi: insights into recent understanding
World Journal of Microbiology and BiotechnologyEntomopathogenic fungi (EPF) are cosmopolitan, obligate, or facultative pathogens that show ruthless aggression toward various insects and ultimately cause them to die. They also have the ability to colonize and establish symbiotic relationships with plants as endophytes, thus offering a number of benefits to the host plants, inducing plant resistance ...
