Abstract: Abstract An isolate of the entomopathogenic fungus Beauveria bassiana (Bals.) Vuill. (Deuteromycotina: Hyphomycetes) was tested for its ability to reduce survival and reproduction of spruce beetle, Dendroctonus rufipennis (Kirby) (Coleoptera: Scolytinae), under laboratory and field… read more here.

Abstract: Several filamentous fungi are known to produce macroscopic pigmented hyphal aggregates named sclerotia. In recent years, some entomopathogenic fungi were reported to produce small sclerotia termed 'microsclerotia', becoming new potential propagules for biocontrol strategies. In… read more here.
