Abstract:The in vitro evaluation of two entomopathogenic fungi, Lecanicillium lecanii and Hirsutella thompsonii, was conducted to assess their efficacy against the Broad mite, Polyphagotarsonemus latus, damaging mulberry. The study measured the cumulative mortality rates of Broad mites at 1, 3, 5, and 7 days after Spraying (DAS) of the fungi at different concentrations (1.5, 2.5, and 3.0 ml/l). Significant variations in mite mortality were observed across different treatments and time points. The highest mortality rate… Show more
