Entomopathogenic fungal species from the genera and are important components in biological control of insect pests. However, temperature, humidity and UV radiation are among the important abiotic factors, which limit their effective usage. In this study, four local isolates of were isolated from different crop rhiospheres of Telangana and Andhra Pradesh states of India, identified and tested for their temperature tolerance in terms of radial growth, conidial yield per 10 mm disc and rate of conidial germination at different incubation temperatures. The results revealed that strains LaMa1 and MaAICRP performed well in terms of radial growth, conidial yield and rate of conidial germination, even at 35°C temperature. The role of such temperature tolerant strains in agriculture is discussed.
来自 属和 属的昆虫病原真菌物种是害虫生物防治中的重要组成部分。然而,温度、湿度和紫外线辐射是限制其有效利用的重要非生物因素。在本研究中,从印度特伦甘纳邦和安得拉邦不同作物根际分离出四株本地 的分离株,对其进行了鉴定,并测试了它们在不同培养温度下的径向生长、每10毫米圆盘的分生孢子产量和分生孢子萌发率方面的温度耐受性。结果表明,即使在35°C的温度下,菌株LaMa1和MaAICRP在径向生长、分生孢子产量和分生孢子萌发率方面也表现良好。本文讨论了这种耐温菌株在农业中的作用。
