Metarhizium anisopliae, Application to control plant insects
- Metarhizium anisopliae (Green fungi – insecticidal fungi – control insects)
- M. anisopliae used in the control of many types of insects that destroy crops such as beetles, brown planthoppers, bugs, coconut beetles, mealybugs, red spiders, green worms… They have the ability to produce toxins destrucin A and destrucin B, very toxic to insects.
- M. anisopliae kill insects by parasitizing insects, create fibers that penetrate the gap between the body segments and then grow inside the body, kill insects.
- M. anisopliae infect insects, kill it. When insects die, mycelium penetrates outside and grows all over the body, At first it is a white chalk layer, then the spores formed are green, should be called “Green fungi”. Spores disperse by wind or water to infect other individuals, causing mass death of insects.
- M. anisopliae infect insects, the insects bring fungi to the nest, infect the whole population.

- Green fungi – purple fungi products plant insects control.
- Green fungi – purple fungi product National Center for Technological Progress – Ho Chi Minh was formed on the basis of strain combination M. anisopliae, Paecilomyces sp. with Metarhizium sp, helps to increase the effectiveness of control insects on many crops.
