  • Paecilomyces and Its Importance in the Biological Control of Agricultural Pests and Diseases
    plants Review Paecilomyces and Its Importance in the Biological Control of Agricultural Pests and Diseases Alejandro Moreno-Gavíra, Victoria Huertas, Fernando Diánez , Brenda Sánchez-Montesinos and Mila Santos * Departamento de Agronomía, Escuela Superior de Ingeniería, Universidad de Almería, 04120 Almería, Spain; [email protected] (A.M.-G.); [email protected] (V.H.); [email protected] (F.D.); [email protected] (B.S.-M.) * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +34-950-015511 Received: 17 November 2020; Accepted: 7 December 2020; Published: 10 December 2020 Abstract: Incorporating beneficial microorganisms in crop production is the most promising strategy for maintaining agricultural productivity and reducing the use of inorganic fertilizers, herbicides, and pesticides. Numerous microorganisms have been described in the literature as biological control agents for pests and diseases, although some have not yet been commercialised due to their lack of viability or efficacy in different crops. Paecilomyces is a cosmopolitan fungus that is mainly known for its nematophagous capacity, but it has also been reported as an insect parasite and biological control agent of several fungi and phytopathogenic bacteria through different mechanisms of action. In addition, species of this genus have recently been described as biostimulants of plant growth and crop yield. This review includes all the information on the genus Paecilomyces as a biological control agent for pests and diseases. Its growth rate and high spore production rate in numerous substrates ensures the production of viable, affordable, and efficient commercial formulations for agricultural use. Keywords: biological control; diseases; pests; Paecilomyces 1. Introduction The genus Paecilomyces was first described in 1907 [1] as a genus closely related to Penicillium and comprising only one species, P.

O fruto, quando de sua colheita, movimenta cerca de 50% da população local (Alencar et al., 2000) e é utilizado no preparo de pratos típicos, bem como óleos e bebidas (Bianco & Pitelli, 1986; Oliveira et al., 2008; Siqueira et al., 2012).

Entomotropica 20(2): 97-111. Se realizó la descripción de las fases adulta e inmaduras de Carmenta theobromae (Busck, 1910) y C. foraseminis Eichlin 1995 (Lepidoptera: Sesiidae) perforadores del fruto del cacao (Theobroma cacao L.) en la región costera del estado Aragua. Los ejemplares fueron obtenidos a partir de frutos de cacao perforado, colectados del Banco de Germoplasma del INIA-Ocumare de la Costa y de la Hacienda La Sabaneta (Choroní) entre 2000-2003. La cría en condiciones de laboratorio, permitió describir las fases de huevo, larva, pupa y adulto de cada especie. Los caracteres que diferencian a los adultos son: Color de las escamas del vértice, frente, alas y abdomen, número de bandas longitudinales en el mesonoto, color de los palpos maxilares y de las coxas anteriores. Los huevos se diferencian por el color, forma, tamaño, y la textura del corión. Las larvas del último instar, presentaron diferencias en los siguientes caracteres: color del cuerpo, el ancho cefálico, forma del escudo torácico, color de las setas abdominales, del escudo anal y el grado de fotofobia. La fase de pupa presentó el mayor número de caracteres diagnóstico para diferenciar ambas especies.

Cúcuta, Norte de Santander, Colombia Corresponding author: [email protected] Rec.: 20.01.12 Accep.: 17.12.13 Abstract The fruit borer, Carmenta foraseminis Eichlin, is an insect that has increased up its attack in cocoa (Theobroma cacao L.) in recent years in northern Santander, Colombia. The objective was to evaluate the pathogenicity of two native strains Paecilomyces sp. Giav-3 and Lecanicillium sp. Giav-4, on larvae of C. foraseminis. Isolations were made from soil samples collected in the municipality of Tibú, Northern Santander, Colombia. After obtaining pure cultures, macroscopic and microscopic characterization for gender identification of the strains using taxonomic keys was done. The evaluation was conducted by immersion of larvae in suspensions of the isolates at concentrations of 0, 106, 107 and 108 conidia/ml. For both strains there was a linear trend in mortality, which was 6.95 directly proportional to the concentrations of the inoculum. The LC50 and LC90 for Giav-3 were 10 and 108.70 conidia/ ml, and for Giav-4 was 106.6 and 108.04 conidia/ml, respectively.

The ocorrence of insect pests provokes damage in the fruit and making its commercialization unfeasible. Then, this study aimed to identify the pest insect the fruit and the pit; to compare the morphological features of the fruit and pit and the damage caused by insects among mother plants and their origins and correlate the fruit and pit morphological features with the damage caused by the insects. Three different origins were evaluated, 12 mother plants by origin and ten fruit by mother plant. All the fruit were opened, checked for the insect damage and the fruit and pit morphological variables were determined. The insects that caused damage to the pequi embryo were identified as Carmenta sp. (Lepidoptera: Sesiidae) and Amblycerus sp (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae). The probability analysis showed significant effect on the mother plants and origins for the percentage of fruit and pit attacked where the location of Laje Velha obtained the lowest rates of the insect attack. The fruit and pit of the Fruta de Leite were bigger and heavier than the others, while the correlations among the predation rate and the other morphological variables of the fruit and pit were not significant.

Laboratorio de Ecología Química del Comportamiento. Sartenejas. Caracas 1080-A. Venezuela. [email protected]. RESUMEN. Carmenta theobromae y C. foraseminis (Lepidoptera: Sesiidae) son especies plaga de importancia económica en el cacao. Previo al diseño e incorporación de nuevas técnicas orientadas a proteger el cultivo contra estos insectos plaga, es necesario definir algunos aspectos de su biología Se realizaron muestreos en plantaciones de cacao de dos localidades en Venezuela. Las larvas colectadas de C. theobromae y C. foraseminis se mantuvieron en cuartos de cría a 28 ± 5 ºC, 70 ± 15 %HR y fotoperíodo 12:12 horas (luz: oscuridad). La emergencia de adultos de C. theobromae se inicia entre las 07:30 horas y 08:00 horas, mientras que C. foraseminis inicia a las 06:00 horas y 07:00 horas, en hembras y machos, respectivamente. Las dos especies muestran hábitos de actividad diurna, con picos de emergencia y comportamientos de llamado diferentes, aspectos que pueden ser parte del mecanismo de especiación por aislamiento reproductivo en un mismo hospedero (cacao). Palabras clave: Sesiidae, emergencia, comportamiento de llamado, Carmenta. ABSTRACT. Carmenta theobromae y C. foraseminis (Lepidoptera: Sesiidae) are pest species of economic importance in the cocoa.
