Assemblage of entomopathogenic fungi infesting immature stages of Noctuidae (Lepidoptera): High diversity but low effect on host populations
Populations of herbivorous insects are considered to be primarily regulated by natural enemies. However, little is known about the ecological role of entomopathogenic fungi. There is very little data on the diversity and prevalence of fungal pathogens in natural insect populations. In this study, th...
