“…A study on molecular identification showed that seven genera of entomopathogenic fungi, namely Beauveria, Clonostachys, Cordyceps, Fusarium, Metarhizium, Penicillium, and Purpureocillium, had very high virulence [12]. Furthermore, the screening results from isolates of the genus Beauveria, and Metarhizium had high pathogenicity against Spodoptera litura [12]. The results of another study showed that isolates of Beauveria bassiana, Isaria fumosorosea, Isaria sinclairii, Lecanicillium muscarium, Metarhizium rileyi, and at a concentration of 1 x 10 7 conidia mL -l were very effective in controlling the larvae of Plutela xylostella [11].…”
