First Report of Infecting in Brazil.

C. Koch (Lamiaceae alt. Labiatae), commonly known as lamb's ear, is an important medicinal plant with anti-inflammatory, antitumor, anticancer, antispasmodic, sedative and diuretic properties (Asnaashari et al.

Immune response and susceptibility to Cotesia flavipes parasitizing Diatraea saccharalis larvae exposed to and surviving an LC dosage of Bacillus thuringiensis.

Biological control using entomopathogens and natural enemies is an ecofriendly method for pest management in agriculture. Biological control agents often can be simultaneously employed and compatibility between agents may improve pest suppression. We investigated the influence of the entomopathogen Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) on the immune system of the sugarcane borer Diatraea saccharalis (Fabricius, 1794) (Lepidoptera: Crambidae) to determine if such changes impact parasitization by Cotesia flavipes Cameron, 1891 (Hymenoptera: Braconidae).
