Beauveria bassiana
 

LARVOCEL is broad spectrum biological insecticide made of Beauveria bassiana, a naturally occurring entomopathogenic fungus. Beauveria bassiana is fungus, which causes a disease known as the white muscadine in insects.

LARVOCEL  is used for the control of various inset pest like Bollworms- Heliothis and Spodoptera, fruit borers, root grubs, internodes borers, berry borers, short borers, beetles and tea mosquito bugs.


Mode of Action

Once the spores of Beauveria bassiana come in contact with the cuticle (skin) of susceptible insects, they germinate and grow into their bodies.

The fungi multiply rapidly inside the insect and spread throughout the insect body causing death due to tissue destruction and by secretion of toxins inside the body of the insect.
 


 
The fungi emerge out the infected insect for sporulation and these spores are disseminated in the air which provide as an incoulum for infection of other insects.

Infected insect stop feeding thereby reducing further crop damage. As a result of these effects, Larvocel spary limits pest incidence in any crop below the economic threshold level once the organism gets established in the ecosystem.

Regular spraying of Larvocel ensures a protective coating of these beneficial fungi on the surface of leaves and stems and the invasion of the pests is effectively arrested.
