pathogenicity of beauveria bassiana strain debi001, lecanicillium muscarium strain daom 198499 and their combination was investigated on 2nd nymphs and adults of b. tabaci in lab condition (in a germinator, 23±1ºc, 95±5% and 16:8 l:d). five concentrations of each fungi were sprayed on undersides of young eggplant leaves that involved 2nd nymphs. experiments were carried out on adults with the s...

INTRODUCTION The use of entomopathogenic fungi to control disease vectors has become relevant because traditional chemical control methods have caused damage to the environment and led to the development of resistance among vectors. Thus, this study assessed the pathogenicity of entomopathogenic fungi in Triatoma dimidiata. METHODS Preparations of 108 conidia/ml of Gliocladium virens, Talarom...

The entomopathogenic fungus Beauveria bassiana (Balsamo 1835) Vuillemin is an effective alternative control agent against some agricultural pests and biological vectors of important diseases such as Chagas disease. In this work we studied an isolate of Beauveria bassiana from of the town of San Antonio Rayón, Puebla, Mexico and its entomopathogenic effects on Meccus pallidipennis (Stal 1872). P...

We describe a case of disseminated Beauveria bassiana infection in a patient with acute lymphoblastic leukemia. Her infection was successfully treated with amphotericin B and itraconazole. B. bassiana is rarely reported as a human pathogen. It is commonly found in soil and because of its pathogenicity to many insect species is incorporated into several pesticides.

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 5197 ...

program, we systematically investigated the diversity of metabolites in Deuteromycota, Beauveria bassiana, Metarhizium anisopliae, Nomuraea rileyi, Paecilomyces fumosoroseus and Verticillium lecanii, which have been isolated from the corpses of insects. Comparative study of the HPLC elution pattern among fungal metabolites found that a strain, Beauveria bassiana EPF-5, produced two novel metabo...

A specimen of Beauveria bassiana was collected from Yang-yang of Gangwon province, Korea in October 2006. Conidial isolates were prepared from the specimen by the dilution method and inoculated in brown rice medium for fruiting body production. After nearly two months incubation for perithecial stromata developed from single isolates as well as from their combinations. They were determined as C...

Pathogenicity of strains of the entomopathogenic fungus Beauveria bassiana and endophytic strains of Beauveria sp against the bovine tick Rhipicephalus (Boophilus) microplus was tested in laboratory bioassays and under field conditions. Suspensions containing 10(5), 10(7) and 10(9) conidia/mL were prepared of each fungal strain for laboratory bioassays. The ticks were maintained at 28 degrees C...
