Metarhizium anisopliae and Paecilomyces sp. to control mealybugs.
result:
- Metarhizium anisopliae and Paecilomyces sp. gave good effect after 11 days of treatment, giving 100% dead mealybug rate, under laboratory conditions.
- Experimental results investigate the ability to inhibit growth and parasitism on mealybugs of the fungus Paecilomyces sp. and M.anisopliae on short- and long-day plants in the field gave good results. The death rate of mealybugs after 15 days in the treatments with the Metarhizium anisopliae was from 59,12% to 86,03%. The death rate of mealybugs after 15 days in the treatments with the Paecilomyces sp. was from 59,12% to 86,03%.
