Evaluation of the Entomopathogenic potential of Beauveria bassiana, Metarhizium anisopliae and Isaria fumosorosea for management of Cosmopolites sordidus Germar (Coleoptera: Curculionidae)
The banana weevil (BW), Cosmopolites sordidus, is the main coleopteran pest of banana, causing up to 100% yield loss. In this study, we screened 20 isolates of entomopathogenic fungi (EPF) for the management of BW. In the lab, eight Beauveria bassiana isolates caused >50% mortality of the adult BW,...
