Potential of Beauveria bassiana application via a carrier to control the large pine weevil
Original language description
The large pine weevil (Hylobius abietis) is an important pest of freshly planted coniferous trees. Feeding damage to conifer seedlings can be prevented by protecting the seedlings (mechanically or chemically), or by reducing H. abietis abundance. The entomopathogenic fungus Beauveria bassiana has promise for H. abietis control. To test the effects of the B. bassiana-colonized carriers (25 mm in diameter and colonized by strain AMEP20) on H. abietis adults that move into forest clearances, we performed several experiments. These included an experiment in Petri dishes under laboratory conditions, an experiment in cages with Norway spruce seedlings under semi-natural conditions, and a field experiment. Infection by B. bassiana and mortality of H. abietis was confirmed in all three experiments. The total mortality rate in all Petri dishes with B. bassiana carriers after 14 days was 74% (80% with fresh carriers, 68% with carriers that had been treated with UV light, 82% for carriers that had been frozen,
