Journal ArticleDOI
The combination of the entomopathogenic fungus Metarhizium anisopliae with the insecticide Imidacloprid increases virulence against the dengue vector Aedes aegypti (Diptera: Culicidae)
TL;DR: The study showed the potential of IMI as an alternative to the currently employed pyrethroid adulticides and suggested that adult A. aegypti could be controlled by surface application of entomopathogenic fungi and that the efficiency of these fungi could be increased by combining the fungi with ultra-low concentrations of insecticides, resulting in higher mortality following relatively short exposure times.
Journal ArticleDOI
Metarhizium brunneum Blastospore Pathogenesis in Aedes aegypti Larvae: Attack on Several Fronts Accelerates Mortality
Abeer M. Alkhaibari,Aline Teixeira Carolino,Sare İlknur Yavaşoglu,Thierry G.G. Maffeis,Thalles Cardoso Mattoso,James C. Bull,Richard Ian Samuels,Tariq M. Butt +7 more
TL;DR: It is shown that selecting the appropriate form of inoculum is important for efficacious control of disease vectors such as Ae.
Journal ArticleDOI
Differential Pathogenicity of Metarhizium Blastospores and Conidia Against Larvae of Three Mosquito Species.
TL;DR: Observations suggest that for optimized control, two different formulations of the fungus may be needed when treating areas where there are mixed populations of Aedes, Anopheles, and Culex.
Journal ArticleDOI
Susceptibility of adult female Aedes aegypti (Diptera: Culicidae) to the entomopathogenic fungus Metarhizium anisopliae is modified following blood feeding
TL;DR: Reduced susceptibility of A. aegypti to fungi following a blood meal is of concern and field testing of entomopathogenic fungi by this group should be carried out to better understand the insect-fungus interaction.
Journal ArticleDOI
Monitoring persistence of the entomopathogenic fungus Metarhizium anisopliae under simulated field conditions with the aim of controlling adult Aedes aegypti (Diptera: Culicidae)
Aline Teixeira Carolino,Adriano Rodrigues de Paula,Carlos P. Silva,Tariq M. Butt,Richard Ian Samuels +4 more
TL;DR: The potential of entomopathogenic fungi for the control of adult A. aegypti was confirmed under field conditions and significantly increased the effectiveness of the fungus, thus reducing the need for frequent changes of black cloths in residences.
