Searching about more effective biocontrol agent fungi in nature?
There are others with specific pathogen tange like Paecilomyces and Pasteria penetrans for plant parasitic nematode, Pseudomonas flouroscece for soil boenr fungi. An upcoming fungi is Phanerochate...you can try them in integrated management
The fungi used as the biocontrol agents work better way are given below :
Beauveria bassiana: Cotton bollworms,white fly, White grub
Metarrhizium anisopliae: Rhinocerous beetles, termite
Paecillomyces: Mealy bugs, Nematodes
Verticillium lecanii: Aphid, mealy bugsWhite fly
Hi Ali: There are many kinds of fungal species as biocontrol agents, Please find these useful links.
