History, challenges, and opportunities in the study of entomopathogenic fungi in tropical regions: Borneo as a model ecosystem

2026-06-17

Abstract excerpt

Fungal pathogens tend to have a poor reputation as a disease among the general public and policy-makers. However, entomopathogenic fungi, adapted to infect and kill arthropod hosts, play a wide range of roles in ecosystems, provide key ecosystem services, and offer interesting models to understand pathogen interaction networks. Tropical regions provide especially favorable conditions for studying this highly diver...
