| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Fungal entomopathogens have been widely investigated as biological control agents of pest insects in attempts to improve the sustainability of crop protection. Simultaneous biological control of both insect pests and plant pathogens (dual control) has been reported for the hypocrealean fungal entomopathogens, Beauveria bassiana, Metharizium spp. and Lecanicillium spp. And accumulating evidence shows that Beauveria spp. can colonize a wide array of plant species endophytically. Furthermore, traits that are important for insect pathogenicity are also involved in pathogenicity to plant pathogen and plant pathogenic nematode.
