Abstract

This research intended to investigate the
pathogenicity of Beauveria bassiana (Bals.) and Metarhizium
anisopliae
(Met.) on immature stages and adult flies of the peach fruit fly, Bactrocera
zonata
(Saunders). Percentage mortality was concentration dependent.
The LC50 and LC90 values reflected privilege of B.
bassiana
over M. anisopliae on immature stages while B. bassiana
reflected higher mortality values for young age pupae than those of old age.
Both entomopathogenic fungi showed high activity against flies.
