Abstract

This research was carried out at the Plant Protection Department, Agricultural Faculty, Ataturk University (Erzurum, Turkey) in 2016. The objective of this study is to determine using as biological control agent against Tribolium confusum du Val., 1863 (Coleoptera: Tenebrionidae) adults of seven entomopathogenic fungal treatments, Beauveria bassiana, Paecilomyces farinosus, Isaria fumosorosea, Isaria farinosa, Lecanicillium muscarium (2 isolates) and an extract of L. muscarium, under laboratory conditions (25±1°C and 75±1% RH). Fungal isolates at two different concentrations (1x105 and 1×107 conidia/mL) were sprayed on the tested adult insects in Petri dishes. The results demonstrated that the mortality rates of T. confusum adults treated with seven entomopathogenic fungi varied from 34.6 to 100% after 10 days of treatment. The entomopathogenic fungi isolates at both 1×105 and 1×107 conidia concentration caused in high mortality levels of T. confusum adults. In conclusion, it was observed that tested seven entomopathogenic fungi isolates might have a potential effect to biological control of this stored-product pest.

Özet

Bu çalışma, 2016 yılında Atatürk Üniversitesi, Ziraat Fakültesi, Bitki Koruma Bölümü (Erzurum, Türkiye)’nde yürütülmüştür. Çalışmanın amacı, yedi entomopatojen fungal (Beauveria bassiana, Paecilomyces farinosus, Isaria fumosorosea, I. farinosa, Lecanicillium muscarium (2 izolat) ve L. muscarium ekstraktı) izolatlarının, laboratuvar şartlarında (25±1°C and 75±1% RH). Tribolium confusum du Val., 1863 (Coleoptera: Tenebrionidae) erginlerine karşı biyolojik kontrol ajanı olarak kullanımlarını tespit etmektir. Fungus izolatları petri kaplarında test edilen ergin böceklere karşı iki farklı konsantrasyonda (1x105 ve 1×107 konidi/mL) sprey şekilde uygulanmıştır. Elde edilen sonuçlar, uygulamadan 10 gün sonra yedi entomopatojen fungus izolatı uygulaması ile T. confusum erginlerinin ölüm oranlarının %34.6’dan %100’e kadar değiştiğini göstermiştir. Entomopatojen fungus izolatları 1×105 ve 1×107 konsantrasyonlarında T. confusum erginlerinde yüksek seviyede ölüme neden olmuştur. Sonuç olarak, test edilen yedi fungal entomopatojenin depolanmış ürün zararlılarının biyolojik mücadelesi için potansiyel etkiye sahip olabileceği gözlemlenmiştir.
