New records of hypocrealean fungi infecting aphids and whiteflies: pathogenicity against Myzus persicae and interaction with its predator Eriopis connexa
Biocontrol Science and Technology 22 (9), 1099-1105
Abstract: Occurrence of hypocrealean entomopathogenic fungi in Argentina is reported. Bioassays were performed to evaluate their pathogenicity against Myzus persicae and Eriopis connexa. The findings underscore the importance of preserving these fungi and of investigating their potential for vector control.
