Abstract excerpt
There have been no previous surveys documenting genetic diversity in Beauveria bassiana (Balsamo) Vuillemin in Hawaii. We used PCR primers and DNA sequencing to genetically characterize 14 isolates of B. bassiana collected from insects in east Hawaii island (the largest Hawaiian island, known as the 'Big Island') and compared these with the 'GHA' strain found in the commercial product BotaniGard®. Twelve of the...
