dc.description.abstract | To survey and to characterize entomopathogenic fungi as natural enemies of mosquitoes in Central Brazil. Methods and Results: Tolypocladium cylindrosporum (Hypocreales, Ophio cordycipitaceae) was isolated for the first time in South America by using Aedes aegypti (Diptera, Culicidae) as sentinel larvae in a stagnant mosquito breeding site in a secondary tropical forest. Two isolates were morphologically and molecularly identified, and their activity tested against A. aegypti eggs, larvae and adults. Conclusions: Findings emphasize the importance of T. cylindrosporum as a natural fungal antagonist of mosquitoes. Significance and Impact of the Study: Both isolates affected larvae and adults but were less effective against eggs; both have potential for development as a mycoinsecticide especially against larvae of A. aegypti the main vector of dengue, chikungunya, Zika and urban yellow fever. | |
