| Research Abstract |
Entomopathogenic fungi were isolated from wild adult mosquitoes to construct fungal culture library specialized for anamorphic entomopathogenic fungi originated from mosquitoes. As a result, fungal culture library housed 392 isolates of anamorphic entomopathogenic fungi was constructed. Then, their infectivity and pathogenicity were assessed. Consequently, 13 isolates showed infectivity against female Anopheles stephensi. Among them, 2 isolates of Lecanicillium spp and 3 isolates of Beauveria bassiana which showed higher infectivity were applied for bioassay of pathogenicity. As a result, high pathogenicity isolate which showed fewer than half of 50% lethal time value of control plot, and low pathogenicity isolate which showed equal level of the value compared with control were detected.
