Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsEvaluation of Metarhizium anisopliae var. anisopliae (Deuteromycotina: Hyphomycete) Isolates and their Effects on Subterranean Termite Coptotermes curvignathus (Isoptera: Rhinotermitidae)Pik-Kheng Hoe, Choon-Fah J. Bong, Kadir Jugah, Amartalingam RajanProblem statement: Coptotermes curvignathus (Isoptera: Rhinotermitidae) is a common termite pest found in oil palm plantation planted on peat. Currently, the control methods focus on using insecticides that lead to high cost and adverse effect to the environment. Approach: Biological control like the use of entomopathogens provides an alternative control method for termite infestation problem. However, several factors need to … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2009 · 10,542 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsBotanic Products as a Sustainable Alternative in the Control of Rice and Grape Pests in South AmericaRicardo Diego Duarte Galhardo de Albuquerque, Frank Romel Leon-Vargas, Carmen Cerdeña del Aguila et al.Pests present a major threat to agricultural crops, leading to diminished yields, economic losses, and potential food insecurity. In South America, rice and grape cultivation have become increasingly significant due to their economic value, contribution to food security, and role in exports. However, these crops are vulnerable to pests such as Oebalus poecilus, Hydrellia wirthi, and Pseudococcus viburni. The reliance … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 25, Issue 2 · 19 Feb 2025 · 5,298 accessesView PDFCite
