An update of a green pesticide:Metarhizium anisopliae
All Life, 2022 Metarhizium anisopliae (Hypocreales: Clavicipitaceae, M. anisopliae), as an invertebrate fungal pathogen, has played a significant role in the control of many agricultural pests and human disease vectors. M. anisopliae is typically used as a chemical in dry or liquid formulations of large numbers of aerial conidia.

Metarhizium Anisopliae Challenges Immunity and Demography of Plutella xylostella [PDF]
Insects, 2020 Entomopathogenic fungi are naturally existing microbes, that can serve as a key regulator of insect pests in integrated pest management strategies. Besides having no hazardous effects on the environment, these entomopathogens are alternatives to synthetic insecticides that can control notorious insect-like Plutella xylostella, a destructive pest of ...
