A MIXTURE AND A METHOD INVOLVING ENTOMOPATHOGENS FOR CONTROLLING PLANOCOCCUS FICUS INSECTS ON VINE PLANTS

摘要

The aim of the following invention is to assist control of the vine mealybug through the use of entomopathogenic fungi, a biotechnological product for controlling the pest planococcus ficus on vine plants. A mixture of the genera Verticillium, Metarhizium, Beauveria and Paecilomyces was used, which demonstrated a high degree of potential in controlling different insect pests. However, to date, said microorganisms have not been used to control this type of insect. A methodology for the use of said mixture and also the proportion of quantities are given.
