Fig. 2.

Percentage mortality of green peach aphid, Myzus persicae by filtrate application of Lecanicillium lecanii isolates (V-2, V-3, and V-5) after time intervals (2nd, 4th, 6th and 8th day). Error bars indicate ± SE and columns headed by different letters represent significant difference (P < 0.05) according to LSD test.

Fig. 3.

Percentage mortality of green peach aphid, Myzus persicae by binary combination of Lecanicillium lecanii isolates V2×V2, V3×V3 and V5×V5 after time intervals (2nd, 4th, 6th and 8th day). Error bars indicate SE ± and columns headed by different letters represent significant difference (P < 0.05) according to LSD test.

Fig. 1

Percentage mortality of green peach aphid, Myzus persicae by conidial application of three different concentrations (1×106, 1×107 and 1×108 conidia/ml) at different time intervals (2nd, 4th, 6th and 8th day) by Lecanicillium lecanii isolates (V-2, V-3 and V-5). One control was set for all the three isolates. Error bars indicate ± SE and columns headed by different letters represent significant difference (P < 0.05) according to LSD test.
