Enhanced fungicide resistance inIsaria fumosoroseafollowing ionizing radiation-induced mutagenesis [PDF]
The application of entomopathogenic fungi such as Isaria fumosorosea to combat insect pests on plants is complicated by their sensitivity to commonly used fungicides. In this study, I. fumosorosea mutants with enhanced resistance to the fungicide benomyl were induced by irradiation using either ion beams or gamma rays, or a combination of the two. When

Microbial antibiotics take the lead in the fight against plant pathogens
The potential of plant microbiome for the development of novel biopesticides for the integrated pest management of agricultural crops. Abstract The plant microbiome is essential for plant fitness and health. Antibiotics produced by plant‐associated bacteria have been shown to play an important role in protecting plant hosts against phytopathogens. Here,

Oriental fruit fly, Bactrocera dorsalis (Diptera: Tephritidae), is an important worldwide crop pest. Little is known about the role of soil‐entomopathogens in mortality during pupation. We assessed the effects of standard potting soil, sterilized sand, and soil amended with beneficials (such as four fungal taxa and a nematode), separately and combined.
