Advances in the Application of Entomopathogenic Fungi on Mite Control
Entomopathogenic fungi are an important class of microbial insecticides,which are widely used in the biological control of agricultural and forestry pests.The harm of mites is very serious in the agricultural and forestry production and storage of agricultural products.Plant-feeding mites are recognized as one of the most difficult pests to control.Predatory mite are the natural enemies of mites.The combination of entomopathogenic fungi and predatory mites can not only increase the death rate of harmful mites but also protect the environment.In this pa-per,several representative species of entomopathogenic fungi and their pathogenic mechanisms were introduced.The research progress of entomopathogenic fungi on mite control was summa-rized,and the future development direction of entomopathogenic fungi as a potential biological pesticide combined with predatory mites for mite control was prospected.
