Effects of entomopathogenic fungi (EPF); Beauveria bassiana, Isaria fumosorosea and Pupureocillium lilacinum against tomato leafminer, Tuta absoluta (Meyrick) (Lepidoptera: Gelechiidae), which is one of the most economic pests of tomato, were investigated in Petri dish, pot and greenhouse experiments. Commercial bioinsecticide Met 52 was also used in the experiments. In the Petri dish trials, I. fumosorosea applied to the third instar larvae by dipping method was recorded as the most effective entomopathogen, while the efficacy of B. bassiana was high in the spray and residue methods. In the pot experiments, entomopathogenic fungi were applied to tomato plants before and after infestation with T. absoluta. As a result of the applications, it was found that the EPF significantly reduced the formation of galleries on tomato leaves when applied before or at the beginning of tomato leafminer infestation. In the greenhouse experiments a registered insecticide Voliam Targo was also applied. All applications significantly reduced the numbers of galleries on tomato leaves than in the control plants, in both greenhouse trials, made in Antalya and Isparta Provinces. I. fumosorosea was the most effective one among the tested 3 EPF. In this study, it was determined that the EPF B. bassiana and P. lilacinum can reduce tomato leafminer damage, while the efficacy of I. fumosorosea was the highest, and especially after two applications it was nearly effective as the registered insecticide.

一些昆虫病原真菌对番茄潜叶虫、Tuta absoluta (Meyrick) 的功效（鳞翅目：Gelechiidae）

昆虫病原真菌 (EPF) 的影响；在培养皿、盆栽和温室试验中，研究了白僵菌、烟熏白僵菌和淡紫色紫苏对番茄潜叶虫、绝对番茄（Meyrick）（鳞翅目：Gelechiidae），这是番茄最经济的害虫之一。商业生物杀虫剂 Met 52 也用于实验。在培养皿试验中，以浸渍法施用于三龄幼虫的 I. fumosorosea 被记录为最有效的昆虫病原体，而 B. bassiana 在喷雾和残留法中的效力较高。在盆栽实验中，昆虫病原真菌在番茄植株被 T. absoluta 侵染前后施用。作为应用程序的结果，研究发现，在番茄潜叶虫侵染之前或开始时，EPF 显着减少了番茄叶片上的廊道形成。在温室实验中，还使用了注册杀虫剂 Voliam Targo。在安塔利亚和伊斯帕尔塔省进行的两个温室试验中，所有应用都显着减少了番茄叶片上的画廊数量。I. fumosorosea 是测试的 3 EPF 中最有效的一种。本研究确定EPF B. bassiana 和P. lilacinum 可以减少番茄潜叶虫的危害，而I. fumosorosea 的药效最高，特别是两次施用后，作为注册杀虫剂几乎有效。在温室实验中，还使用了注册杀虫剂 Voliam Targo。在安塔利亚和伊斯帕尔塔省进行的两个温室试验中，所有应用都显着减少了番茄叶片上的画廊数量。I. fumosorosea 是测试的 3 EPF 中最有效的一种。本研究确定EPF B. bassiana 和P. lilacinum 可以减少番茄潜叶虫的危害，而I. fumosorosea 的药效最高，特别是两次施用后，作为注册杀虫剂几乎有效。在温室实验中，还使用了注册杀虫剂 Voliam Targo。在安塔利亚和伊斯帕尔塔省进行的两个温室试验中，所有应用都显着减少了番茄叶片上的画廊数量。I. fumosorosea 是测试的 3 EPF 中最有效的一种。本研究确定EPF B. bassiana 和P. lilacinum 可以减少番茄潜叶虫的危害，而I. fumosorosea 的药效最高，特别是两次施用后，作为注册杀虫剂几乎有效。
