Published: May 15, 2023
Concerns regarding the ecological and health risks posed by synthetic insecticides have instigated exploration of alternative methods for controlling insects, such as entomopathogenic fungi (EPF) biocontrol agents. Therefore, this review discusses their use a potential to chemical especially focuses on two major ones, Beauveria bassiana Metarhizium anisopliae, examples. First, exemplifies how B. bassiana- M. anisopliae-based biopesticides are used in world. Then, we discuss mechanism action which EPF interacts with focusing penetration cuticle subsequent death host. The interactions between insect microbiome, well enhancement immune response, also summarized. Finally, presents recent research that N-glycans may play role eliciting an response resulting increased expression immune-related genes smaller peritrophic matrix pores, reducing midgut permeability. Overall, paper provides overview control highlights latest developments relating interaction immunity.

Pesticide use in crops is a severe problem some countries. Each country has its legislation for use, but they differ the degree of tolerance these broadly toxic products. Several synthetic pesticides can cause air, soil, and water pollution, contaminating human food chain other living beings. In addition, them accumulate environment an indeterminate amount time. The agriculture sector must guarantee healthy with sustainable production using environmentally friendly methods. this context, biological biopesticides from microbes plants are growing green solution segment. pests attack worldwide, including weeds, insects, nematodes, microorganisms such as fungi, bacteria, viruses, causing diseases economic losses. bioproducts microorganisms, microbial (MBPs) or alone, practice due to intense research world. Mainly, baculoviruses have been used sources biomolecules secondary metabolites biopesticide use. Different methods, direct soil application, spraying techniques endotherapy, seed treatment, used. Adjuvants like surfactants, protective agents, carriers improve system different formulations. tool bioremediation environment. This review summarizes topics, focusing on origin.

31Green Veterinary Pharmacology for Honey Bee Welfare and Health: Origanum heracleoticum L. (Lamiaceae) Essential Oil for the Control of the Apis mellifera Varroatosis
Veterinary Sciences, Journal Year: 2022, Volume and Issue: 9(3), P. 124 - 124
Published: March 9, 2022
Varroatosis, caused by the Varroa destructor mite, is currently most dangerous parasitic disease threatening survival of honey bees worldwide. Its adverse effect on welfare and health requires regular use specific acaricides. This condition has led to a growing development resistance phenomena towards frequently used drugs. In addition, another important aspect that should not be understated, toxicity persistence chemicals in environment. Therefore, identification viable environmentally friendly alternatives urgently needed. this scenario, essential oils are promising candidates. The aim study was assess contact toxicity, fumigation efficacy repellent Origanum heracleoticum L. oil (EO) against V. mite. tests, each experimental replicate consisted 15 adult female mites divided as follows: 5 treated with EO diluted HPLC grade acetone, acetone alone (as negative control) Amitraz positive control). tested at concentrations 0.125, 0.25, 0.5, 1 2 mg/mL. For replicate, mortality manually assessed after one hour. evaluated through prolonged exposure different time intervals. After exposure, constituting an were transferred Petri dish containing bee larva 48 h. action investigated implementing directional choice test mandatory route. During repellency tests behavior mite (90 min its introduction route) influenced EO. showed best mg/mL concentrations, neutralizing (dead + inactivated) 90.9% 80% mites, respectively. mean rate maximum min) 60% 84% 24 h, Overall, these results demonstrate significant O. destructor, suggesting possible alternative control varroatosis farms order improve Apis mellifera and, consequently, hive productions.

18Phytochemical Profile of Foeniculum vulgare Subsp. piperitum Essential Oils and Evaluation of Acaricidal Efficacy against Varroa destructor in Apis mellifera by In Vitro and Semi-Field Fumigation Tests
Veterinary Sciences, Journal Year: 2022, Volume and Issue: 9(12), P. 684 - 684
Published: Dec. 9, 2022
Varroatosis is an important parasitic disease of Apis mellifera caused by the mite Varroa destructor (V. destructor). The parasite able to transmit numerous pathogens honeybees which can lead colony collapse. In recent years, effectiveness authorized drug products has decreased due increasing resistance phenomena. Therefore, search for alternatives commercially available drugs mandatory. this context, essential oils (EOs) prove be a promising choice studied their known acaricide properties. research work, activity EO vapours isolated from epigeal part (whole plant) fennel (Foeniculum vulgare sbps. piperitum) and its three fractions (leaves, achenes flowers) against V. was evaluated. fumigation using two methods. first involved prolonged exposure mites oil vapour variable times. After exposure, five in each replicate were placed Petri dish with larva. Mortality, chronic toxicity phenomena, assessed after 48 h. second method aimed translate results obtained vitro test into semi-field experiment. two-level cages set up. lower compartment cage, material releasing placed; upper compartment, Varroa-infested set. showed that increase mortality directly proportional time concentration. whole plant returned 68% at highest concentration (2 mg/mL) (48 h control), while leaves, flowers 64%, 52% 56% mortality, respectively. experiment, up 20 times higher than one used study required achieve similar drop >50%. show tests should only preliminary screening activity. followed tests, are identify threshold bees effective dose field studies.

Published: Jan. 27, 2025
Entomopathogenic fungi, a group of insect pathogens, are characterized by high insecticidal efficacy and minimal environmental impact. They commonly used as biopesticides for pest control due to their significant practical value. We here classify entomopathogenic fungi according the process fungal infection in hosts, changes host behavior during infection, mechanisms spore transmission, review strategies employed insects resist including physical barrier defenses, immune system behavioral avoidance pathogens. This also discusses pathogenic on closely linked co-evolution between pathogens defenses. In conclusion, perspective future research is provided, emphasizing impact population density concentration environment disease outbreaks.
