Laboratory assessment for biological control of Tribolium confusum du Val., 1863 (Coleoptera: Tenebrionidae) by entomopathogenic fungi

Abstract

Laboratory assessment for biological control of Tribolium confusum du Val., 1863 (Coleoptera: Tenebrionidae) by entomopathogenic fungi Tribolium confusum du Val., 1863 (Coleoptera: Tenebrionidae)'un biyolojik mücadelesinde entomopatojen fungusların kullanımının laboratuvar ortamında değerlendirilmesi

Efficacy of Various Entomopathogenic Fungi Strains as Biocontrol Agents for Control of Callosobruchus maculatus (Fabricius) (Coleoptera: Bruchidae)

“…These percentages were significantly higher than the control (P<0.05) (Table 1). Komaki et al (2017) tested six entomopathogenic fungi isolates ((P. farinosus (2538), I. fumosorosea (4501), I. farinosa (3580), B. bassiana (4984), L. muscarium (972) and L. muscarium (5128)) against Tribolium confusum du Val., 1863 adults under laboratory conditions. In their study, these entomopathogenic fungi isolates led to the mortalities between 37.3 (for I. farinosa (3580) at 1×10 5 dose) and 100% (for P. farinosus (2538) and B. bassiana (4984) at 1×10 7 dose) on T. confusum adults after 10 days of treatment.…”

“…Therefore, entomopathogenic fungi could be a viable alternative method to control this pest. Up to now, there are many studies with the use of entomopathogenic fungi to control insect pests, but very little focused on using fungi as control agents against stored product pests (Ferroni 1977;Serale & Doberski 1984;Moina et al 1998;Sheeba et al 2001;Gökçe & Er 2005;Sevim et al 2010;Shifa Vanmathi et al 2011;Muştu et al 2014;Reddy et al 2014;Erler & Ateş 2015;Komaki et al 2017;Usanmaz Bozhüyük et al 2018;Bjornson & Elkabir 2019).…”

Yerli entomopatojenik fungus izolatları ile üç ticari entomopatojenik fungus ürününün Sitophilus oryzae L. ve Tribolium confusum du Val üzerindeki etkinlikleri

“…Researchers reported that the high efficacy levels recorded in their study indicate that the tested B. bassiana isolate could be effective biocontrol agent against S. oryzae. In another study by Komaki et al (2017), seven EPF isolates (B. bassiana (ARSEF-4984); Paecilomyces farinosus (ARSEF-2538); Isaria fumosorosea (ARSEF-4501); I. farinosa (ARSEF-3580); Lecanicillium muscarium (ARSEF-972 and ARSEF-5128), Mycotal extract of L. muscarium (as positive control) and distilled sterile water with Tween-20 (as negative control) were tested against T. confusum adults. All EPF isolates were sprayed at two different concentrations (1 × 10 5 and 1 × 10 7 conidia/ml) on adult insects in petri dishes.…”

Entomopatojen fungusların Acanthoscelides obtectus (Say) (Col.: Chrysomelidae)’un ergin ölümlerine etkileri

“…Benzer bir araştırmada, Lecanicillium ve Isaria cinsine ait bazı entomopatojen fungus izolatlarının fasulye tohum böceğinin larva ve erginlerine karşı etkili olduğu saptanmıştır (Ondráčková, 2015). Komaki et al (2017)'ın yaptıkları bir çalışmada Lecanicillium muscarium, Isaria farinosa ve Isaria fumosorosea entomopatojen fungusları Tribolium confusum (Coleoptera: Tenebrionidae) erginlerine karşı etkili bulunmuşlardır. Baklagil tohumlarında bu zararlının değişik dönemlerine ve tohum ağırlığına Beauveria bassiana'nın etkili olmadığı rapor edilmiştir (Padin et al, 2002).…”
