Fungi are diverse organisms that occupy important niches in natural settings and agricultural settings, acting as decomposers, mutualists, parasites pathogens. Interactions between fungi other organisms, specifically invertebrates, understudied. Their numbers also severely underestimated. Invertebrates exist many of the same spaces known to engage fungal feeding or mycophagy. This review aims provide a comprehensive, global view mycophagy invertebrates bring attention areas need more research, by prospecting existing literature. Separate searches on Web Science were performed using terms “mycophagy” “fungivore”. Invertebrate species corresponding extracted from articles retrieved, whether research was field- laboratory-based, location observation if field-based. Articles excluded they did not list at least genus identification for both invertebrates. The search yielded 209 papers covering seven phyla 19 invertebrate orders.

Drosophila suzukii (Matsumura) is a relevant pest affecting berries and stone fruits globally, including in the Neotropical region, where its invasion was reported about decade ago. Despite chemical control being main management method for D. suzukii, data on insecticide susceptibility populations are scarce. Here, we assessed of three field-collected Brazilian to four insecticides (i.e., deltamethrin, permethrin, spinetoram, imidacloprid) contrasted this with standard insecticide-susceptible population. Using discriminating concentration (LC90) from susceptible population, identified resistant populations. Synergist exposure (piperonyl butoxide, triphenyl phosphate, diethyl maleate) indicated role detoxification enzymes resistance. Our results showed that deltamethrin most toxic, followed by imidacloprid. While all field were similarly pyrethroids spinosyns, one population Minas Gerais Paula Candido) had significantly lower imidacloprid susceptibility, only 53.4 ± 5.2% mortality at 10.0 g/L (the equivalent 10-fold estimated LC90).

Abstract BACKGROUND The invasive insect Drosophila suzukii (Matsumura) is an important pest of several red grape varieties. yeast Hanseniaspora uvarum (Niehaus), which associated with D. , strongly attracts flies and stimulates them to feed on yeast‐laden food. In the present study, a formulation based H. culture spinosad insecticide was applied foliage vineyards control compared applying whole plant. After successful application in vineyard, we tested additional ‐based formulations greenhouse determine their capacity . RESULTS Application ‐spinosad at 36.4 g per hectare reduced field infestation same rate as 120 prevented residues grapes.
