Curkovic, T.S., Chiffelle, Í, Villar, J., Araya, J.E., & Silva, G. 2019 An agricultural detergent as co-adjuvant for entomopathogenic fungi and chlorpyrifos to control Pseudococcus viburni (Hemiptera: Pseudococcidae). Florida Entomologist 102(1): 101-106

Keywords:

  • control
  • entomopathogenic fungi
  • Notes: Fungal solutions with detergent did not affect the conidial germination of the entomopathogenic fungi. Our results found that mixing Beauveria bassiana, Metarhizium anisopliae, or chlorpyrifos formulations with TS-2035 at 0.001% v/v did not control P. viburni by removal of their epicuticular wax, but still contributed significantly to mortality.
