“…Compatibility of Ifr with L. testaceipes may be useful for managing aphid pests in citrus and other crops, especially under conditions that may promote higher rates of pest infection. Results of other studies involving pest-parasitoid-fungus interactions conducted with Ifr or other species of entomopathogenic fungi concur with our findings; that in an IPM program, a parasitoid and a fungus can be compatible when utilized together (Fransen & van Lenteren 1993, 1994Sterk et al 1995a, b;Mesquita et al 1997;Askary & Brodeur 1999;de la Rosa et al 2000;Mesquita & Lacey 2001;Jaronski et al 2003;Kim et al 2005;Avery et al 2008).…”

“…(Neuroptera: Chrysopidae) on the immature stages of the main insect pests of different economic host plants was studied by Salem (2002). The effect of B. bassiana and Nemazal on the natural enemies of aphid pests, including A. craccivora was also studied by James, et al (1995), Haseeb and Murad (1997), Hermann et al (1997), Sewify ( 1997), Vogt et al (1997, Murphy et al(1999) , Mesquita and Lacey (2001) , Biradar et al ( 2002), Sharma and Kashyap (2002), Hamd et al (2005), Kim et al (2005), Naveen andBrar (2006), El-Wakeil et al (2006) and Bidhan et al ( 2008).…”

“…and Zare [Verticillium lecanii (Zimmermann) Vi´egas], are well known as pathogen of arthropods with a broad host range and applied for control of whiteflies in field crops (Ravensberg et al, 1990;Osborneand Landa, 1992).The development in experiments led to release of two commercial products "Vertalec ® " and "Mycotal ® " based on strains specifically selected for use against aphids and whiteflies (Gardner et al, 1984;Ramakers, 1989). The efficacy of these products was approved against larvae and adult of Colorado potato beetle and Aphids (Frournier and Brodeur 2000;Kim et al, 2005;Öztürk et al, 2015).…”

T icks are an important threat to livestock due to either their direct effect or their role as tick-borne diseases. The ticks control is commonly by using chemical products, which has several side effects. Therefore, using biological control agents has become urgent and safe alternative to reduce and to avoid these adverse effects (Samish et al., 2004; Reis-Menini et al., 2008). Entomopathogenic fungi were commonly used in pest control of crops and forest pests (Kaaya et al., 1996). Recently, great attention is being paid to these fungi in control of arthropods borne disease of human and animals. These fungi can infect and often kill ticks and therefore can be used in ticks control (Gindin et al., 2001). Beauveria bassiana and Lecanicillium lecanii (=Verticillium lecanii) are among the most important species infecting ixoidid ticks in nature and different strains of B. bassiana are pathogenic to different kinds of tick (Fernandes et al., 2012; Camargo et al., 2012; Ren et al., 2016). The efficacy of used the fungi depend on the tick species and population and the fungal strain (Fernandes et al., 2012; Campos et al., 2010; Sun et al., 2011; Perinotto et al., 2012). The biopesticide that contains B. bassiana (Balsamo, Vuillemin) is used to control flies on animal species (balEnce), and against crop pests' greenhouses and food crops (Met52) (Gonzalez et al., 2016).While, Lecanicillium lecanii (Zimmermann) Gams research Article Abstract | Two entomopathogenic fungi, Verticillium lecanii and Beauveria bassiana, were tested against Rhipicephalusannulatus. Mycotal® was the source of Verticillium lecanii while Biosect® was the source of Beauveria bassiana. Five concentrations (1×10 7 , 5×10 8 , 2.5×10 9 , 1×10 10 and 4×10 10 spore/ml) of Verticillium lecanii as well as five different concentrations (5×10 7 , 2×10 8 , 8×10 9, 3.2×10 10 and 12.8x10 10 /ml) of Beauveria bassiana were prepared and tested against adult female tick, eggs and larvae. The mortality in adult ticks was 60.60 to 72.00% after 2 weeks of application for V. lecanii at concentration ≥ 5x10 8 spore/ml, while B. bassiana showed no mortality at any concentrations. The treated tick revealed nutritional index significantly lower than control untreated one for both fungi. Furthermore, V. lecanii showed no effect on eggs, while, B. bassiana delayed and reduced the egg hatching. In addition, both fungi caused 100% mortality of larvae. The effective concentration was ≥ 10 8 spore/ml for both fungi with no significant difference among the highest concentrations. Moreover, the fungal extract had no effect on adult tick. In conclusion, V. lecanii is lethal to adult tick and B. bassiana caused larvae mortality and reduced egg hatching. A prospective application of fungi of commercial source in the pasture or animal farm is possible for tick control.
