Efficacy of culture filtrates of Metarhizium anisopliae against larvae of Anopheles stephensi and Culex quinquefasciatus.

Efficacy of culture filtrates of five strains of Metarhizium anisopliae isolated from insects were evaluated against Anopheles stephensi and Culex quinquefasciatus. The culture filtrates released from the strains of M. anisopliae in the YpSs and chitin broths were filtered and used for the bioassays after a growth of 7 days.
