- Abstract
El objetivo de este estudio fue evaluar el efecto de hongos a base de Metarhizium anisopliae (Metschnikoff) Sorokin y Beauveria bassiana (Balsamo) Vuillemin (Hypocreales: Clavicipitaceae), cepa Ma143 (M. anisopliae), cepa Ma65 (M. anisopliae), y cepa Bb122 (B. bassiana) sobre el parasitismo natural de Anagyrus kamali (Moursi) (Hymenoptera: Encyrtidae) a la concentración de 1 x 108 conidios ml-1. Para cada cepa, cinco plantas de Hibiscus rosa-sinensis fueron infestadas con ovisacos de Maconellicoccus hirsutus (Green) (Hemiptera: Pseudococcidae) y puestas en campo. El diseño experimental fue completamente al azar con 12 tratamientos y 5 repeticiones. El parasitismo de A. kamali fue evaluado a los 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, y 50 días después de la aplicación de los hongos. El parasitismo de A. kamali no fue afectado por los hongos. Beauveria bassiana y M. anisopliae son compatibles con el parasitoide A. kamali, permitiendo así la asociación de esas dos formas de control. The aim this study was to evaluate the effects of fungi based on Metarhizium anisopliae (Metschnikoff) Sorokin and Beauveria bassiana (Balsamo) Vuillemin (Hypocreales: Clavicipitaceae) strain Ma143 (M. anisopliae), strain Ma65 (M. anisopliae), and strain Bb122 (B. bassiana) on natural parasitism by Anagyrus kamal i (Moursi) (Hymenoptera: Encyrtidae) at concentration of 1 x 108 conidia ml-1. For each strain, five plants of Hibiscus rosa-sinensis were infested with ovisacs of Maconellicoccus hirsutus (Green) (Hemíptera: Pseudococcidae) and put in the field. The experimental design was completely randomized with 12 treatments and five replications. The parasitism by A. kamali was evaluated at 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, and 50 days after the application of the fungi. The parasitism by A. kamali was not affected by both entomopathogenic fungi. Beauveria bassiana and M. anisopliae are compatible with the parasitoid A. kamali , thus allowing the association of these two forms of control.
