Evaluation of Beauvaria bassiana metabolite pretreated with silica nanoparticles against the cotton leafworm, Spodoptera littoralis (Boisd.)
Plant herbivorous insects are a severe danger to the world agricultural production of various crops. Insecticides used indiscriminately resulted in habitat destruction due to their high toxicity, as well as disease resistance. In this respect, the development of a sustainable approach to supreme crop production with the least damage is a crucially prerequisite. As a result, the current study was carried out to understand the potential effect of arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi along with Beauvaria bassiana silica nanoparticles (Si NPs) as a new approach to protect cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L. Merr.) against an insect herbivore, Spodoptera littoralis. AM and non-AM cotton plants were infested with S. littoralis and then sprayed with a biopesticide [B. bassiana Si NPs] or a chemical insecticide (Chlorpyrifos). Hence, in the present study effectiveness of combined application of mycorrhizal (AM) fungi and Si NPs was appeared in some biochemical aspects of S. littoralis such as total soluble protein, Glutamic -oxaloacetic transaminase (GOT) and Glutamic -Pyruvic transaminase.
