Entomopathogenic microorganisms: their role in insect pest managementEgyptian Journal of Biological Pest Control - Tập 31 - Trang 1-8 - 2021
Bhabesh Deka, Chittaranjan Baruah, Azariah Babu
Entomopathogens are pathogenic to insect pests. Several types of naturally
occurring, viz. fungus, bacteria, viruses, and nematodes, infect a range of
insect pests and help manage crop growth. They offer several advantages over
chemical pesticides, including being precise, safe, and ecologically
sustainable. Agricultural systems are streamlined, and changes to natural
ecosystems occur. Viruses, ba... hiện toàn bộ
Potential of phytopathogenic fungal isolates as a biocontrol agent against some weedsEgyptian Journal of Biological Pest Control - Tập 30 Số 1 - 2020
Youssef M. M. Mohammed, Mohamed E. I. Badawy
AbstractBioherbicides afford satisfactory approach to overcome weed problem.
Selection of new bioherbicides from phytopathogenic microbiota is essential for
modern agricultural management, especially mycoherbicides. Thus, in the present
investigation, 4 phytopathogenic fungi including Alternaria alternata YMM1, A.
tenuissima YMM3, Chaetomium globosum YMM2, and Nigrospora oryzae YMM4 were
isolated ... hiện toàn bộ
Increasing the efficacy of the cotton leaf worm Spodoptera littoralis nucleopolyhedrosis virus using certain essential oilsEgyptian Journal of Biological Pest Control - Tập 30 - Trang 1-7 - 2020

Baculoviruses inactivation by UV sunlight is considered one of the most
important factors that reduce their potential use in insect management programs.
The three antioxidant essential oils, marjoram, orange, and tea tree were tested
as protective additives to the multiple nucleopolyhedrosis virus (SpliMNPV)
against UV. The results revealed that the orange oil was promising for virus
protection, w... hiện toàn bộ
Evaluation of certain Penicillium frequentans isolates against Cercospora leaf spot disease of sugar beetEgyptian Journal of Biological Pest Control - Tập 28 - Trang 1-7 - 2018
Mansour M. El-Fawy, Rafeek M. I. El-Sharkawy, Kamal A. M. Abo-Elyousr
The impact of six local isolates of Penicillium frequentans recovered from
healthy sugar beet (Beta vulgaris L.) leaves was evaluated against Cercospora
beticola, the causal pathogen of Cercospora sugar beet leaf spot under
laboratory and field conditions. In in vitro studies, all the six isolates were
able to inhibit the mycelial growth of C. beticola with variation in their
antagonistic capabili... hiện toàn bộ
Antiviral activities of three Streptomyces spp. against Zucchini yellow mosaic virus (ZYMV) infecting squash (Cucurbita pepo L.) plantsEgyptian Journal of Biological Pest Control - Tập 33 - Trang 1-16 - 2023
Gamal A. M. Ghanem, Ahmed M. A. Mahmoud, Ahmed A. Kheder, Doha A. S. Gebily, Asmaa Osamy
Zucchini yellow mosaic virus (ZYMV) is the major devastating disease worldwide,
which leads to substantial economic losses (up to 100%) to yield and fruits
quality produced of squash plants. Application of agro-pesticides is efficient
and incompatible with organic agriculture and reportedly has harmful effects on
human health and ecosystem. Nowadays, Streptomyces spp., a rich source of
potential b... hiện toàn bộ
Molecular identification, characterization, and expression analysis of a novel trypsin inhibitor-like cysteine-rich peptide from the cotton bollworm, Helicoverpa armigera (Hübner) (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae)Egyptian Journal of Biological Pest Control - Tập 30 - Trang 1-7 - 2020
Muhammad Shakeel, Junaid Zafar
Trypsin inhibitor-like cysteine-rich domain (TIL)-type protease inhibitors have
been reported to inhibit proteases such as trypsin, cathepsin, elastase, and
chymotrypsin, and thus play a critical role in several physiological processes.
However, the information about TIL peptides in insects is limited. In the
present study, a novel cysteine-rich trypsin inhibitor-like protease, designated
as HaTIL... hiện toàn bộ
