Mycoinsecticides and Mycoacaricides: A comprehensive list with worldwide coverage and international classification of formulation types ☆
TL;DR: An updated, comprehensive list of mycoinsecticides and mycoacaricides developed worldwide since the 1960s, with a total of 171 products claimed to control acarines (mites and ticks) in at least 4 families.
Journal ArticleDOI
Biological control of Bemisia tabaci with fungi
Marcos Faria,Stephen P. Wraight +1 more
TL;DR: Principal recommendations include: (1) initiating treatments against the early stages of the pest to prevent population buildup, (2) targeting pest populations developing under moderate environmental conditions, and (3) applying fungi asynchronously with incompatible fungicides.
Journal ArticleDOI
Biological control of insects in Brazil and China: history, current programs and reasons for their successes using entomopathogenic fungi
Zengzhi Li,Sérgio Batista Alves,Donald W. Roberts,Meizhen Fan,Italo Delalibera,Jian Tang,Rogério Biaggioni Lopes,Marcos Faria,Drauzio E.N. Rangel +8 more
TL;DR: The current biocontrol programs using insect fungi in these two developing countries are discussed, as well as the future and main challenges they must face to further encourage the adoption of mycoinsecticides.
Journal ArticleDOI
Current status and perspectives of fungal entomopathogens used for microbial control of arthropod pests in Brazil
Gabriel Moura Mascarin,Rogério Biaggioni Lopes,Italo Delalibera,Éverton K. K. Fernandes,Christian Luz,Marcos Faria +5 more
TL;DR: The status of mycoinsecticides currently available in Brazil and future prospects are summarized, with a focus on fungus-based products.
Journal ArticleDOI
Imbibitional damage in conidia of the entomopathogenic fungi Beauveria bassiana, Metarhizium acridum, and Metarhizium anisopliae
TL;DR: A need for establishing standard protocols for preparing aqueous suspensions of sensitive fungi for both research and commercial applications is highlighted, as formulation of conidia in pure (non-emulsifiable) paraffinic oil provided considerable protection from imbibitional damage.
