Abstract excerpt

The potato tuber moth (PTM), Phthorimaea operculella Zeller, is a prominent pest of potato in many potato cultivation areas such as Iran. Since the potato is one of the most important sources of human food, non-chemical control of the pest is essential. Application of entomopathogenic fungi is a low-risk alternative method to synthetic chemical insecticides. Therefore, we examined the efficacy of Metarhizium aniso...
