1 Effective biological pesticides based on oil formulation of deuteromycete fungal spores have been developed for use against locusts and grasshoppers. The isolate IMI 330189 of Metarhizium anisopliae (¯avoviride) var. acridum has been registered, extensively ®eld tested and its operating charact...

Development of strategies for the incorporation of microbial pesticides into the integrated management of migratory pests
Locusts and grasshoppers regularly threaten agricultural production across large parts of the developed and developing worlds. Recent concerns over the health and environmental impacts of standard chemical control measures have led to a demand for alternative, more environmentally benign control ...

Operationalscale application of entomopathogenic fungi for control of Sahelian grasshoppers
Control of grasshoppers and locusts has traditionally relied on synthetic insecticides, and for emergency situations this is unlikely to change. However, a growing awareness of the environmental issues associated with acridid control as well as the high costs of emergency control are expanding th...
