Insects are the main pest in agricultural systems, causing significant losses crop productivity and storage. During last decades control of insects has been carried out through uncontrolled massive use chemical insecticides, very harmful to environment health, which requires development new efficient safe alternatives. Numerous fungal species have described as entomopathogens insect pests, well plant endophytic fungi. In this sense, Trichoderma is a genus filamentous fungi widely studied used biocontrol agent agriculture on pathogenic due its ability parasitize them (mycoparasitism), among other mechanisms action. recent years, possibility using for considered, both directly indirectly. The studies date reported that capable controlling parasitism production insecticidal secondary metabolites, antifeedant compounds repellent metabolites. And indirectly activation systemic defensive responses, attraction natural enemies or insect-symbiotic microorganisms. Therefore, not only effective against pathogens, but also representing future alternative sustainable agriculture.

Biotic stress is caused by harmful microbes that prevent plants from growing normally and also having numerous negative effects on agriculture crops globally. Many biotic factors such as bacteria, fungi, virus, weeds, insects, nematodes are the major constrains of tends to increase reactive oxygen species affect physiological molecular functioning led decrease in crop productivity. Bacterial fungal endophytes solution overcome tasks faced with conventional farming, these environment friendly microbial commodities colonize plant tissues without causing any damage. Endophytes play an important role host fitness, uptake nutrients, synthesis phytohormone diminish injury triggered pathogens via antibiosis, production lytic enzymes, secondary metabolites, hormone activation. They reported help coping stress, improving soil health, respectively. Therefore, usage biofertilizers biocontrol agent have developed eco-friendly substitute destructive chemicals for development mitigation stress. Thus, this review highlighted potential biofertilizers, agent, maintenance health sustainable agriculture.

The use of entomopathogenic fungi (EPF) like Beauveria, Metarhizium, Lecanicillium, and Isaria is upsurging in recent years for the management crop insect pests. EPF are considered better than synthetic insecticides as they safe humans, sustainable to environment, target-specific nature. Many these pathogenic economically important pests thus capable controlling them. They cheaper long run, show lesser residual effects, able overcome problem resistance. degrades host cuticle proliferates hemolymph hyphal bodies, secreting toxins responsible death insects. later saprophytic growth leads production fungal spores reinfecting other hosts. Different commercial formulations available globally such liquid formulation, wettable powder, suspensible granules, so on. These under different trade names can be used several crops at recommended dosage obtain optimum results. storage conditions should maintained retain viability EPF. Modern biotechnological interventions could vital enhancing efficacy entomopathogens by manipulating their traits. Specialized researches necessary understand interaction between EPF, insects, crops, environment order explore best formulation mycoinsecticides. This review explores overview its mode action, significance, formulations, future prospects, summary findings. Readers realize essence agriculture through this review.

Insects constitute approximately 75% of the world’s recognized fauna, with majority species considered as pests. Entomopathogenic fungi (EPF) are parasitic microorganisms capable efficiently infecting insects, rendering them potent biopesticides. In response to infections, insects have evolved diverse defense mechanisms, prompting EPF develop a variety strategies overcome or circumvent host defenses. While interaction mechanisms between and is well established, recent findings underscore that their interplay more intricate than previously thought, especially evident across different stages infection. This review primarily focuses on insect strategies, centered around three infection stages: (1) Early stage: involving pre-contact detection avoidance behavior in along induction behavioral responses upon contact cuticle; (2) Penetration intra-hemolymph growth initiation cellular humoral immune functions while symbiotic microbes can further contribute resistance; (3) Host insect’s death ultimate confrontation pathogens insects. Infected strive separate themselves from healthy population, rely infected spread new hosts. Also, we discuss novel pest management strategy underlying cooperation disturbing system. By enhancing our understanding insect, this provides perspectives for EPF-mediated developing effective fungal insecticides.

The agricultural industry could undergo significant changes due to the revolutionary potential of nanotechnology. Nanotechnology has a broad range possible applications and advantages, including insect pest management using treatments based on nanoparticle insecticides. Conventional techniques, such as integrated management, are inadequate, chemical pesticides negative consequences. As result, nanotechnology would provide ecologically beneficial effective alternatives for control. Considering remarkable traits they exhibit, silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) recognized prospects in agriculture. Due their efficiency great biocompatibility, utilization biologically synthesized nanosilver control significantly increased nowadays. Silver have been produced wide microbes plants, which is considered an environmentally friendly method. However, among all, entomopathogenic fungi (EPF) most be used biosynthesis with variety properties. Therefore, this review, different ways get rid pests discussed, focus importance growing popularity biosynthesized nanosilver, especially made from that kill insects. Finally, review highlights need further studies so bio-nanosilver tested field application exact mode action against can elucidated, will eventually boon putting check populations.

Horticultural production is a vital catalyst for economic growth, yet insect infestations reduce horticultural crop yield and quality. Pesticides other pest control methods are used during planting to eliminate pests that cause direct indirect losses. In such situations, endophytic entomo-pathogenic fungi (EEPF) can act as potential tools biological control. They protect plants by boosting nutrition, morpho-physiology salt or iron tolerance. Antixenosis, antibiosis plant tolerance change performance preferences. EEPF- colonisation slows herbivore development, food consumption, oviposition larval survival. EEPF changes physio-chemical properties like volatile emission profile secondary metabolite regulate defences. produces chitinases, laccases, amylases, cellulases defence. Recent studies focused on species’ significance, isolation, identification field application. Realizing their full difficult due insufficient mass production, storage stability formulation. Genetic-molecular bioinformatics help build EEPF-based systems. Metagenomics helps study microbial taxonomy function. Multi-omics system biology decode interactions with host microorganisms. NGS (Next Generation Sequencing), comparative genomics, proteomics, transcriptomics, metabolomics, metatranscriptomics microarrays evaluate plant-EEPF relationships. IPM requires understanding the abiotic biotic elements influence interaction physiological mechanisms of colonisation. Due restricted research, there hundreds unexplored EEPFs, providing an urgent need uncover analyse them.
