About This Special Issue
Entomopathogenic fungi (EPFs) were successfully applied worldwide as biological control agents since 1880s, search aimed to isolate and identify native entomopathogenic fungi from different locations in Egypt and to evaluate their virulence against the different economic insects. Effect of different entomopathogenic fungi on different stages of insects and evaluat the lethal time (LT50),and The lethal concentration (LC50) M. anisopliae is a hyphomycetous fungus that is pathogenic to a wide range of insect orders and consider very important entomopathogenic fungi and also B. bassiana consider very important entomopathogenic fungi isolate from different insects and gave higher levels of mortality against different insects also aimed study toxicological, biological and histological effects of the isolated entomopathogenic fungus.
Aims and Scope:
  1. Isolation
  2. Identification
  3. Entomopatogenic fungi
  4. Virulence
  5. LT50
  6. Lc50
