Evaluation of entomopathogenic fungi and nematodes for the biological control of Macchiademus diplopterus
This study is the first to report entomopathogen pathogenicity against nymph and aestivating adult GCBs of this species, and field evaluation of S. yirgalemense is recommended on deciduous fruit, where it could provide the first pre-harvest biological control option for this pest.
