Beauveria bassiana strain 04/01-Tip, obtained from a larva of the opium poppy stem gall wasp Iraella luteipes (Hymenoptera; Cynipidae), endophytically colonizes opium poppy (Papaver somniferum L.) plants and protects them against this pest. The goal of this study was to monitor the dynamics of endophytic colonization of opium poppy by B. bassiana after the fungus was applied to the seed and to ...

background: chemical control method using different acaricides as spray, dipping solution or pour-on is routinely used for controlling ticks. biological control agents are favorable due to their safety for animals and environment. entomopathogenic fungi such as beauveria bassiana are well known for controlling ticks. in this study, two iranian indigenous strains of b. bassiana ( b. bassiana 519...

de la polimerasa (PCR) y secuenciación mediante amplificación genómica de la región espaciadora interna transcrita (ITS-2) del ADN ribosómico, obteniendo Beauveria bassiana con un porcen-taje de similitud de la misma especie en GenBank del 99% (BLAST GU373855.1). Tras su identificación, y aun no habiendo suficientes pruebas que demostraran la infección fúngica, se decidió tratar al paciente con...

We have established the chemical structure of (+)-bassianolone (3), the antimicrobial compound precursor of cephalosporolides E and F, and that of the furan metabolite 4 from the entomopathogenic fungus Beauveria bassiana.

To understand the nature of recombination processes in Beauveria bassiana, double-auxotrophic complementary mutant strains were used to produce six heterokaryons by three different methods. Conidia from these heterokaryons were plated on selective media and stable haploid (but not diploid) recombinants were isolated. Single colony recombinants were recovered with both parental and non-parental ...

The objective of this study was to select strains of Beauveria bassiana for controlling Cosmopolites sordidus (Germ.) in plantain farms (cv. Terra) of the "Recôncavo" and southern regions in the state of Bahia, Brazil. The virulence of 32 B. bassiana isolates against C. sordidus was determined under laboratory conditions. Three isolates (CNPMF 407, CNPMF 218, and CNPMF 416) were selected for ev...

Adult female western Xower thrips, Frankliniella occidentalis, were exposed for 24 h to impatiens leaf disks treated with Beauveria bassiana at low and high application rates (ca. 100 and 1000 viable conidia/mm2) and subsequently maintained on impatiens leaf disks supplemented or not supplemented with impatiens pollen. OVspring production and mortality of insects were monitored daily. Exposure ...

The aim of this study was to investigate whether S-(-)-10,11-dihydroxyfarnesic acid methyl ester produced by cell subtype Beauveria bassiana CS1029 causes acute toxicity when used for cosmetic purposes by performing an eye irritation test. New Zealand white (NZW) rabbits were treated with a 100 mg/dose of S-(-)-10,11-dihydroxyfarnesic acid methyl ester according to standard procedure guidelines...
