ABSTRACT:
The subject invention concerns a novel anal useful biopesticide with activity against insect pests such as boll weevil, sweet potato whitefly and cotton fleahopper. The biopesticide of the subject invention comprises an entomopathogenic fungus having virulence against a targeted insect pest(s), an arrestant anal feeding stimulant for the targeted insect pest(s) anal, optionally, a pheromone for the targeted insect pest(s). A preferred fungus is a Beauveria bassiana, preferably Beauveria bassiana, ATCC-74040 (ARSEF-3097). By using this novel fungus, or mutant thereof, in the composition of the present invention, Boll weevils, sweet potato whiteflies anal cotton fleahoppers can be controlled without environmental and public safety hazards presented by chemical control agents.
