Metarhizium robertsii produces an extracellular invertase (MrINV) that plays a pivotal role in rhizospheric interactions and root colonization. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2013
As well as killing pest insects, the rhizosphere competent insect-pathogenic fungus Metarhizium robertsii also boosts plant growth by providing nitrogenous nutrients and increasing resistance to plant pathogens. Plant roots secrete abundant nutrients but

Metarhizium anisopliae enzymes and toxins

Toxicon, 2010
Entomopathogenic fungi are both a feasible system for the control of insect pests in agriculture with a growing market and an important model for studies of host-pathogen interaction. In the last ten years the actual use of fungi, mainly Metarhizium anisopliae and Beauveria bassiana, is increasing reaching commercial scale in Countries like Brazil ...

Metarhizium Associated with Coffee Seedling Roots: Positive Effects on Plant Growth and Protection against Leucoptera coffeella

Agriculture, 2022
Metarhizium species can be mutualistic symbionts of plants. They are able to colonize roots, promote plant growth and provide protection against pests. We previously found Metarhizium robertsii and M.

Integrated Management of European Cherry Fruit Fly Rhagoletis cerasi (L.): Situation in Switzerland and Europe [PDF]

, 2012
: The European cherry fruit fly, Rhagoletis cerasi (L.) (Diptera: Tephritidae), is a highly destructive pest. The low tolerance for damaged fruit requires preventive insecticide treatments for a marketable crop.

Production of Mutagenic Metabolites by Metarhizium anisopliae [PDF]

Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry, 2006
NG-391 (1) and NG-393 (2), previously reported from undescribed Fusarium species as nerve-cell growth stimulants, were identified from fermentation extracts of the entomopathogenic fungus Metarhizium anisopliae. These compounds are 7-desmethyl analogues of fusarin C and (8Z)-fusarin C, mutagenic toxins from Fusarium species that contaminate corn.

Production of Microsclerotia From Entomopathogenic Fungi and Use in Maize Seed Coating as Delivery for Biocontrol Against Fusarium graminearum

Frontiers in Sustainable Food Systems, 2020
The commercial use of the entomopathogenic fungi Metarhizium spp. in biopesticides has gained more interest since the discovery that several species of this genus are able to colonize roots. In general, commercial products with Metarhizium are formulated
