GENETIC DIVERSITY OF Metarhizium anisopliae ISOLATED OF INSECTS AND AGROECOSYSTEMS

Tropical and Subtropical Agroecosystems, 2021
Background. The genus Metarhizium is integrated of various species, they have a wide geographic distribution and are considered one of the best biological control agents for pests insect. Objective.

Behavioural responses of peach potato aphid, Myzus persicae Sulzer (Hemiptera: Aphididae), to entomopathogenic fungi infected conspecifics

Agricultural and Forest Entomology, EarlyView.
Myzus persicae showed no detectable behavioural response to Beauveria bassiana‐colonised agar alone. Aphids spent significantly more time in odour fields containing EPF‐infected conspecifics than healthy aphids, agar or blank air. EPF infection may alter host‐associated odours, suggesting pathogen‐mediated cues could influence aphid behaviour and ...

Metabolic Conservation and Diversification of Metarhizium Species Correlate with Fungal Host-Specificity

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2016
The ascomycete genus Metarhizium contains several species of insect pathogenic fungi ranging from specialists with narrow host ranges to generalists that can infect diverse invertebrates.

Can Potato Plants Be Colonized with the Fungi Metarhizium and Beauveria under Their Natural Load in Agrosystems?

Microorganisms, 2021
Beauveria and Metarhizium fungi are facultative plant endophytes that provide plant growth-stimulating, immunomodulatory, and other beneficial effects. However, little is known about the level of plant colonization by these fungi under natural conditions.

From biology to biotechnology: Host‐regulation factors from parasitoid wasps are a source of bioactive molecules with translational potential

Insect Molecular Biology, EarlyView.
Parasitoid wasps deploy maternal and embryonic factors to reprogramme host physiology. Venom, calyx fluid, polydnaviruses, teratocytes and larval secretions act in a coordinated, compartmentalised manner. Host‐regulation factors are promising sources of insecticidal, antimicrobial and bioinspired translational molecules.

Dose‐dependent efficacy of a novel dsRNA‐based solution containing vadescana for Varroa destructor control

Pest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 10, Page 9974-9983, October 2026.
Vadescana is a novel dsRNA‐based product that targets Varroa fecundity. Vadescana applied at 4 g/brood box in one application was most effective at reducing Varroa populations for up to 18 weeks. Abstract BACKGROUND A novel dsRNA‐based product, containing a molecule called vadescana, interferes with Varroa destructor (Anderson and Trueman) fecundity ...

Industry perceptions of biological control in food manufacturing environments: A qualitative analysis of barriers and opportunities

Annals of Applied Biology, Volume 189, Issue 2, September 2026.
Biological control is widely used in agriculture but rarely deployed in food manufacturing, where industry acceptability is unexamined. Semi‐structured interviews with 17 food manufacturing professionals across 15 facility contexts in northwest England and north Wales explored views on entomopathogenic fungi, Bacillus thuringiensis and parasitoid wasps.

Colony sectorization of Metarhizium anisopliae is a sign of ageing [PDF]

Microbiology, 2005
Spontaneous phenotypic degeneration resulting in sterile sectors is frequently observed when culturing filamentous fungi on artificial medium. Sterile sectors from two different strains of the insect pathogenic fungusMetarhizium anisopliaewere investigated and found to contain reduced levels of cAMP and destruxins (insecticidal peptides).
