An Ecological Assessment of Isaria fumosorosea Applications Compared to a Neonicotinoid Treatment for Regulating Invasive Ficus Whitefly. [PDF]

J Fungi (Basel), 2019
A pilot study was conducted on a weeping fig, Ficus benjamina shrub hedge in a Florida urban landscape to determine the efficacy of a fungal biopesticide, PFR-97™ which contains blastospores of Isaria fumosorosea, and a neonicotinoid treatment (Admire Pro™) applied against the invasive ficus whitefly pest, Singhiella simplex (Singh). Post treatment, an

Expression of dsRNA in recombinant Isaria fumosorosea strain targets the TLR7 gene in Bemisia tabaci. [PDF]

BMC Biotechnol, 2015
RNA interference (RNAi) technology shows a great potential in controlling agricultural pests, despite the difficulty of introducing exogenous dsRNA/siRNA into target pests. Isaria fumosorosea is a common fungal pathogen of the B-biotype Bemisia tabaci (whitefly), which is a widespread pest.

A predatory mite that suppresses Diaphorina citri populations on plants with pollen and oviposition sites

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, Volume 171, Issue 8, Page 592-602, August 2023., 2023
The Asian citrus psyllid, Diaphorina citri (Hemiptera: Psyllidae), is a key citrus pest and vector of the devastating citrus greening disease (huanglongbing) and sustainable control is needed. We established the predatory mite Amblyseius herbicolus (Acari: Phytoseiidae) as a natural enemy on plants by providing alternative food and oviposition sites ...

Microbial antibiotics take the lead in the fight against plant pathogens

Microbial Biotechnology, Volume 16, Issue 1, Page 28-33, January 2023., 2023
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,

Integrated Pest Management (IPM) in Agriculture and Its Role in Maintaining Ecological Balance and Biodiversity

Advances in Agriculture, Volume 2023, Issue 1, 2023., 2023
The production of sustainable crops and environmental management in farming face several significant potential obstacles, including climate change, resource depletion and environmental degradation. Weeds and insect pests that considerably reduce yields have put crop production systems in danger.

Mortality of the oriental fruit fly, Bactrocera dorsalis, during pupation in insect pest suppressive soils

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, Volume 170, Issue 7, Page 565-572, July 2022., 2022
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.
