Article Synopsis
- Mycopesticides play a crucial role in managing the Asian citrus psyllid, but there are limited studies on effective formulations.
- Twelve fungal strains were isolated from South China and identified, with F-HY002-ACPHali exhibiting the highest initial virulence and suitable growth characteristics for biphasic fermentation.
- The optimized oil-based conidial formulation using sesame oil improved shelf life and enhanced virulence against D. citri, paving the way for developing effective mycopesticides for ecological pest control.
Gut symbiotic bacteria have a substantial impact on host physiology and ecology. However, the contribution of gut microbes to host fitness during long-term low-temperature stress is still unclear. This study examined the role of gut microbiota in host low-temperature stress resistance at molecular and biochemical levels in the oriental fruit fly Bactrocera dorsalis.
