Performance of Three Isolates of <em>Metarhizium anisopliae</em> and Their Virulence against <em>Zeugodacus cucurbitae</em> under Different Temperature Regimes, with Global Extrapolation of Their Efficiency
The performance of entomopathogenic fungi in pest control is usually affected by both biotic and abiotic factors. This study aimed to determine the effects of various temperatures (15, 20, 25 and 30 °C) on conidial germination, mycelial growth and conidial density and virulence to the melon fly <...
