          Abstract

          RESUMO O trabalho foi desenvolvido com o objetivo de comparar a eficiência de preparações líquida e em pó do fungo Beauveria bassiana e também verificar quais efeitos que o tipo de solo e cama de aviário podem causar sobre o fungo, em condições de laboratório. A formulação em pó mostrouse mais eficiente que a líquida, causando mortalidade confirmada de larvas de 83,3 e de 33,4% de adultos, contra 18,7 e 12%, respectivamente para larvas e adultos. A CL50 da preparação em pó foi de 2,41 x 107 e 5,33 x 107 conídios/g e TL50 de 4,7 e 5,3 dias para larvas e adultos, respectivamente. O fungo em contato com o solo de aviário teve sua eficiência reduzida em cerca de 40% em relação ao tratamento com solo de barranco, e a mortalidade de larvas não diferiu quando se utilizou cama nova ou usada. A mortalidade de adultos foi baixa tanto para solo combinado à cama nova (11,5%) quanto usada (25%), bem como a mortalidade de larvas na aplicação do fungo sobre (58,7%) e abaixo (38,7%) da cama nova. Constatou-se que o aumento do tempo de contato dos insetos com os substratos tende a diminuir a mortalidade em cerca de 12 vezes, independente do substrato.

          ABSTRACT This study was carried out in order to compare the effectiveness of liquid and powder preparations of the fungusBeauveria bassiana, and to verify the potential effects of soil type and poultry farm bedding on the fungus, under laboratory conditions. The powder proved more effective than the liquid formulation, causing a confirmed larval mortality of 83.3% and a confirmed adult mortality of 33.4%, against 18.7 and 12%, respectively, for larvae and adults. LC50 values of 2.41 x 107 and 5.33 x 107 conidia/g, and LT50 values of 4.7 and 5.3 days were obtained with the powder preparation for larvae and adults, respectively. When in contact with the poultry farm soil, the fungus had its effectiveness reduced by about 40% compared to the hillside soil treatment, and no differences in larval mortality were observed between fresh and soiled bedding. Adult mortality was low in the soil combined with either fresh (11.5%) or soiled bedding (25%), as was larval mortality in the application of the fungus over (58.7%) or below (38.7%) the fresh bedding. It was verified that an increased contact time of the insects with the substrates tended to decrease mortality by about 12 times, regardless of substrate.

            Nonspecific factors involved in attachment of entomopathogenic deuteromycetes to host insect cuticle.

            The attachment of the conidia of the insect-pathogenic fungi Nomuraea rileyi, Beauveria bassiana, and Metarrhizium anisopliae to insect cuticle was mediated by strong binding forces. The attachment was passive and nonspecific in that the conidia adhered readily to both host and nonhost cuticle preparations. The hydrophobicity of the conidial wall and the insect epicuticle appeared to mediate the adhesion process. Detergents, solvents, and high-molecular-weight proteins known to neutralize hydrophobicity reduced conidial binding when added to conidium-cuticle preparations. However, these chemicals did not remove the hydrophobic components from the epicuticle or from conidial preparations. The outer surface of the conidium consists of a resilient layer of well-organized fascicles of rodlets. Intact rodlets extracted from B. bassiana conidia bound to insect cuticle and exhibited the hydrophobicity expressed by intact conidia. Both electrostatic charges and various hemagglutinin activities were also present on the conidial surface. However, competitive-inhibition studies indicated that these forces played little, if any, role in the adhesion process.
