Sustainable control of Dalbulus maidis: A field study with entomopathogenic fungi

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, Volume 173, Issue 11, Page 1156-1164, November 2025.
Dalbulus maidis, a plant pathogen vector, poses a serious threat to maize production and food security. We investigated the potential synergistic effects between formulations based on entomopathogenic fungi and corn hybrids with varying resistance to maize stunt complex and Maize rayado fino virus. The combined management of M. anisopliae + B. bassiana

Isolation and characterization of an Isaria fumosorosea isolate infecting the Asian citrus psyllid in Florida

Journal of Invertebrate Pathology, 2008
A fungal pathogen that killed adult Diaphorina citri Kuwayama (Asian citrus psyllid) (Hemiptera: Psyllidae) in Florida citrus groves during the fall of 2005 was identified and characterized. Investigation of this pathogen is important because D. citri vectors citrus greening disease (Huanglongbing), which was reported in Florida in 2005.

Enniatin Mycotoxins in Food: A Systematic Review of Global Occurrence, Biosynthesis, and Toxicological Impacts on In Vitro Human Cell Models

Comprehensive Reviews in Food Science and Food Safety, Volume 24, Issue 5, September 2025.
ABSTRACT Enniatins (ENNs) are emerging mycotoxins mainly produced by Fusarium species. They frequently contaminate cereals and cereal‐based products. Despite their widespread occurrence, these mycotoxins are not yet regulated, but concerns about their potential health effects due to dietary exposure exist.

Vertical Zonal Distribution Patterns of Entomopathogenic Fungi in the Changbai Mountain

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 7, July 2025.
Entomopathogenic fungi (EPF) distribution was divided into high‐ and low‐elevation patterns. EPF species diversity in the same vegetation belt was unaffected by altitude. EPF tended to evolve toward broadleaved forest habitats. ABSTRACT Entomopathogenic fungi (EPF) are critical drivers of ecosystem processes such as pest regulation and material cycling.

Are Entomopathogenic Fungal-based Insecticides and Insect Growth Regulator Mixtures Effective Against the Citrus Mealybug, Planococcus citri (Hemiptera: Pseudococcidae), Feeding on Coleus, Solenostemon scutellarioides, Plants under Greenhouse Conditions?

HortScience, 2023
The citrus mealybug, Planococcus citri, is an insect pest of greenhouse-grown horticultural crops. Citrus mealybug causes plant damage when feeding on plant leaves, stems, flowers, and fruits, resulting in a substantial economic loss.

Inoculation and conservation of the biocontrol agent European earwig in Washington pear orchards

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, Volume 173, Issue 3, Page 246-259, March 2025.
European earwigs (Forficula auricularia sensu lato) (Dermaptera: Forficulidae) were collected in cardboard shelters and released in pear (Pyrus communis, Rosaceae) orchards for biocontrol of pear psylla (Cacopsylla pyricola; Hemiptera: Psyllidae). Earwigs failed to establish in commercial orchards using broad‐spectrum insecticides but increased in ...
