Effects of wetting on the persistence of quiescent conidia of Isaria fumosorosea
Abstract Quiescent conidia of Isaria fumosorosea were submitted to various wetting–drying cycles under different regimes of temperature and air humidity. Germination and viability of conidia collected on cultures freshly host-passed (P2) were not affected at 25 °C during five cycles at increasing wet phase duration (2–12 h per daily cycle) under any ...
