Abstract:Entomopathogenic fungi are a promising tool for the biological control of crop pests provided low or no impact on non-target organisms. Selection for host specificity as well as on-target applications open new avenues for more sustainable strategies for pest management. Isolates ofMetarhizium anisopliae(Metschn.) Sorokin have been identified as promising for developing innovative entomovection-based strategies for the control of the oriental fruit fly,Bactrocera dorsalis(Hendel) (Diptera: Tephritidae), in Afri… Show more
