🧬 Metarhizium is a species of entomopathogenic fungi of the family Clavicipitaceae. It inhabits in soils around the world and causes disease in various insects, parasitizing on them. There are about 200 species of insects that can be affected by this fungus, including:
🔹 Colorado potato beetle,
🔹 Relict woodcutter,
🔹 Termites,
🔹 Mole cricket,
🔹 Wire rods,
🔹 Diabrotica,
🔹 Larvae of the May beetle, etc.
📚 Metarhizium shows entomocidal activity. Studies of the activity of enzymes of the detoxification system of migratory locusts larvae (Locusta migratoria) were carried out at mycosis caused by Metarhizium. Fungal infection causes toxicosis in insect, accompanied by disorders of various body systems. The activity of detoxifying enzymes increases, which leads to suppression of immunity and the rapid development of the disease. Spores of the fungus in the soil, when it enters the body of the pest, germinate within 10-12 hours and affect adipose tissue, intestinal tract, paralyze the nervous system, muscle tissue and respiratory organs. As a result the pest dies and becomes a source of development for the fungus and other soil microflora.
📑 The distinctive feature of the entomopathogenic fungi from entomopathogens of bacterial and viral origin is the ability to pe*****te into the bodies of insects through the cuticle. The cuticle is composed of proteins, chitin and lipids, and the entomopathogenic fungi Metarhizium have high enzymatic activity to overcome this barrier.
🧪 Metarhizium is the part of the well-known soil bioinsecticide “Entocid” produced by ENZIM Biotech.
Entocid (Metarizin) is a biological soil insecticide, a complex biological preparation for soil pest control: mole crickets, wireworms, scoop larvae, western corn rootworms, May and Colorado potato beetle larvae, wintering forms of pests in the soil.
📝 Instructions for use.
It is recommended to use the preparation in autumn or spring, especially during heavy rains.
Entocid (Metarizin) should be mixed with peat, sand, organic fertilizers, evenly distributed on the soil surface. After the application of the preparation the soil is treated in accordance with the technology: plowing, cultivation, disking, hilling. It is most effective to apply the preparation into the moist soil before its treatment.
✏️ For perennials it is possible to add the preparation into the wells. In order to do this prepare holes according to the diameter of the crown (or bush) with the depth 25-70 cm around the tree (distance between holes 1-1.5 m). After application of the preparation the holes are covered with soil.
💢 In the dry soil the effectiveness of the preparation is significantly reduced.
