| Popis: | BackgroundFor controlling the resistance to insects, in particular carpophagous and phyllophagous caterpillars, using chemical pesticides has led to contamination of cotton area in Benin. Facing this problem, alternative methods including the use of entomopathogenic fungi as biopesticide could be a sound measure to preserve the environment, biodiversity and ensure good quality of crops. Previous studies have revealed the insecticidal potential of the entomopathogenicBeauveria bassianaon some insect pest species. However, little is known about its effectiveness on cotton Lepidopteran pests. This review is done to learn more aboutB. bassinafor its application in controlling cotton insect pests, especially Lepidopteran species.Main bodyDifferent sections of the current review deal with the related description and action modes ofB. bassianaagainst insects, multi-trophic interactions betweenB. bassianaand plants, arthropods, soil and other microbes, and biological control programs includingB. bassianaduring last decade. Advantages and constraints in applyingB. bassianaand challenges in commercialization ofB. bassiana-based biopesticide have been addressed. In this review, emphasis is put on the application methods and targeted insects in various studies with regard to their applicability in cotton.ConclusionThis review helps us to identify the knowledge gaps related to application ofB. bassianaon cotton pest in general and especially in Lepidopteran species in Benin. This work should be supported by complementary laboratory bioassays, station and/or fields experiments for effective management of cotton Lepidopteran pests in Benin. |
