Selection of Native Fungi Strains Pathogenic to Vespula germanica (Hymenoptera: Vespidae)
The yellowjacket wasp, Vespula germanica F., is considered a serious pest of productive and recreational activities worldwide. A pathogenicity study was carried out with 29 strains of Metarhizium anisopliae and 30 of Beauveria bassiana against worker and male wasps. Wasps of the same age were fed wi...
