Abstract

The present study investigates the effects of the fungal entomopathogens Beauveria bassiana, Metarhizium anisopliae and Isaria fumosorosea, following their endophytic colonization of the Solanum tuberosum L plants. Our results showed the studied fungal species isolates had no effects in promoting or suppressing the growth of S. tuberosum potato but affect the infestation of the serious pests.
