“…Efficacy of both the fungus B. bassiana and M. anisopliae were proved against adult and larvae of housefly, M. domestica (Diptera: Muscidae) [ 1 , 2 ] and against H. irritans [ 4 ], against mosquito larvae [ 5 - 7 ]. All these observations indicate that both fungus candidates are proved as efficacious against many livestock pests, with the addition of the present study indicating their efficacy against Culicoides adults/larvae.…”

“…Sorok. 1 , 18 , 19 , 20 , 21 , 22 , 23 These studies have shown high mortality among housefly populations within 5–15 days; however, research efforts are still needed to explore which local isolates of the insect pathogenic fungi work effectively in which local environments and can thus compete with conventional insecticides. In accordance with the importance of housefly as a medical and veterinary pest, the current study was designed to investigate the effectiveness of local isolates of B. bassiana , M. anisopliae and Isaria fumosorosea (Wize) from Pakistan on housefly populations consisting of both larvae and adults and, additionally, to evaluate the effect of sublethal doses of fungi on the housefly fecundity and longevity.…”

“…Our results of treatment with direct contact did not agree with results recorded by [21] which M. anisopliae Iran 437C had a high virulence against S. longipalpa adult and nymph mortality were 52.5 and 45% treated with 6.6×10 5 conidia/cm 2 , at concentrations of M. anisopliae 1.65×10 7 and 6.6×10 7 conidia/cm 2 , adult and nymph mortality were 100 %, after 7 days of exposure, respectively. Also [22] indicated that mortality percentages of nymphs and adults of S. longipalpa were 82.5% and 85% at seven days' post treatment at similar doses (proportion of 10% ≈ 6.6 × 10 conidia/cm 2 ) and survival times were 4.1 and 3.9 days, respectively, it seems that molting and ecdysis in the tracheal system of nymphs decreases the probability of spiracle blocking and decrease the rate of nymphs' mortality. results recorded by [23] indicated when the B. germanica treated with B. bassiana at concentration 1 x 10 9 conidia/ml exposed to direct contact the mortality rate of nymphs and adults were 16.7 and 50 % after 5 days after inoculation, also mortality rate was 40 and 80 % after 20 days after inoculation, respectively, but when the B. germanica treated with B. bassiana at concentration 1 x 10 9 conidia/ml exposed to bait, the mortality levels of nymphs and adults treated with bait reach values 50 and 40% after 20 days, respectively.…”
