Invasive vectors can induce dramatic changes in disease epidemiology. While viral emergence following geographical range expansion of a vector is well known, the influence a vector can have at the level of the host's pathobiome is less well understoo

Optimising the production of insects for food and feed and ensuring their health are growing concerns for producers. Insects suffer from a range of insect pathogenic microorganisms, and the management of such diseases is essential. One solution is th

Fungi in the genus Metarhizium are soil-borne plant–root endophytes and rhizosphere colonizers, but also potent insect pathogens with highly variable host ranges. These ascomycete fungi are predominantly asexually reproducing and ancestrally haploi

Virulence traits within a community of the fungal entomopathogen Beauveria: Associations with abundance and distribution

Autor: Annette Bruun Jensen, Sevasti Maistrou, Nicolai V. Meyling, Myrsini E. Natsopoulou

Publikováno v: Fungal Ecology. 48:100992

Entomopathogenic fungi are widespread in terrestrial ecosystems and can be used as models for studying host-pathogen interactions. However, the associations between fungal virulence and ecosystem abundance, and the importance of virulence for ecologi

Physiological constraints restrict specialist pathogens from infecting new hosts. From an applied perspective, a narrow host range makes specialist pathogens interesting for targeting specific pest insects since they have minimal direct effects on no
