Abstract | ||||
The susceptibility of two selected fungi Beauveria bassiana and Metarhizium anisopliae was performed to certain registered pesticides. The pesticides, commonly used in the experimental area were applied at their recommend concentrations. There were singnificant difference between the tested pesteicide on the growth of B. bassiana and M. anisopliae. The fungicides, cosidal WP 77% achieved the most inhibition effect to the radial growth of both fungi i.e B. Bassiana and M. anisopliae of 90.79 and 90.74% growth reduction, respectively. The lowest effect was recorded by each of the herbicides Stomp Extra on B. Bassiana 57.41% and the fungicide, Super Royl on M. anisopliae (49.88%) growth reduction. From the obtained results, can recommend the pesticides that cause the lowest toxicity effect on the two entomopathogenic to use agents in integrated pest management program. | ||||
