A new species of Entomophthora on beetles

Transactions of the British Mycological Society, 1953
During July 1950, a severe mortality of chestnut defoliating beetles (Brahmina sp.) was noticed at the Government Gardens, Chaubattia, India. The insects were found to be affected with an undescribed species of Entomophthora. The internal hyphae were profuse, hyaline and branched, giving external digitate conidiophores, bearing ovoid papillate conidia ...

The Genus Entomophthora in the Western Hemisphere

Transactions of the Kansas Academy of Science (1903-), 1963
The genus Entomophthora which belongs to the order Entomophthorales (Phycomycetes) is thought to play an important part in the natural control of many undesirable insects. Consequently, this group is of interest to both botanists and entomologists. For this reason the writer has attempted to bring together some of the existing information concerning ...

Metabolic products of Entomophthora virulenta

Journal of the Chemical Society, Perkin Transactions 1, 1978
The new natural products 4′-hydroxymethylazoxybenzene-4-carboxylic acid and azoxybenzene-4,4′-dicarboxylic acid have been obtained from the entomopathogenic fungus Entomophthora virulenta.

Preservation of Entomophthora protoplasts in liquid nitrogen

Canadian Journal of Microbiology, 1972
Protoplasts of Entomophthora spp. were satisfactorily preserved in liquid nitrogen after controlled-rate cooling to −40 °C. 5% Dimethyl sulfoxide was the preferred cryoprotectant.

Rhinophycomycosis entomophthorae.

Archives of dermatology, 1979
Rhinophycomycosis entomophthorae is a variant type of subcutaneous phycomycosis of the face that is caused by Entomophthora coronata. The case we describe was the first patient reported in the world literature, to our knowledge. His infection reappeared after an extended dormant period.

Effects of hormones on Entomophthora egressa morphogenesis

Journal of Invertebrate Pathology, 1979
Abstract The morphological effects of a fungal sex hormone, trisporic acid (TA), and a synthetic insect juvenile hormone (JH) on mycelial cultures derived from protoplasts of the fungus Entomophthora egressa were determined. In comparison with the control treatment (no added hormone), only one treatment (JH and TA both added at 40 μg/50 ml ...

Spontaneous formation of protoplasts by a species of Entomophthora

Journal of Invertebrate Pathology, 1972
Abstract Conidia of a species of Entomophthora isolated from the eastern hemlock looper, Lambdina fiscellaria fiscellaria, were germinated in Grace's insect tissue culture medium. Two germ tubes were normally formed per conidium, and when these reached a length of approximately 100–150 μ, the protoplasm was spontaneously released from the tip of the ...

Entomophthora bullata as a pathogen of Sarcophaga aldrichi

Journal of Invertebrate Pathology, 1973
Abstract Adults of Sarcophaga aldrichi killed by Entomophthora bullata were found in the field 7 days after emergence. Resting spores were not found until 6 days later, although conidia were formed from the first incidence of mortality. It is suggested that the life cycle of the fungus involves alternating generations of conidia and thick-walled ...

Rhinophycomycosis Entomophthorae Occurring in a Chimpanzee in the Wild in East Africa

The American Journal of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 1972
Abstract A case of rhinophycomycosis entomophthorae occurring in an immature chimpanzee living in the wild in the Gombe Stream Reserve of Western Tanzania is described. The fungus Entomophthora coronata was cultured from the lesion. Treatment with small doses of iodide, sulphadoxine (Fanasil, Roche), and sulphamethoxazole/trimethoprin (Bactrim, Roche ...

Comparative Physiology of Two Isolates of Entomophthora egressa

Mycologia, 1981
Isolate 458 of Entomophthora egressa from larvae of the eastern hemlock looper and isolate 521 from larvae of the spruce budworm differed in colony morphology on coagulated egg yolk medium, protoplast growth rate in modified Grace's medium, regeneration sequence, effect on growth medium [pH, osmolality, individual and total ninhydrin-positive compound (
