Development of strategies for the incorporation of entomopathogenic fungi in the management of Diaphorina citri Kuwayama, 1908 (Hemiptera: Liviidae) in the citrus crops The main cause of the crop loss in citrus is currently the disease known as greening or Huanglongbing (HLB), transmitted by the insect vector Diaphorina citri. This study aimed to develop strategies for incorporating the fungi Beauveria bassiana ESALQ-PL63, registered for the control of other pests and Isaria fumosorosea ESALQ-1296 in development as biopesticide especially for the management of D. citri by determining the optimal concentration of adjuvants and of conidia to be used, their effectiveness in laboratory, semifield and field; as well as its compatibility with agrochemicals used in the crop. The comparison of the two fungi applied with six adjuvants for the control of D. citri revealed that except Tween 80 (0.001%), all other adjuvants contributed to increase the effectiveness of the fungi. Control levels obtained in the laboratory bioassays with B. bassiana and I. fumosorosea were confirmed in bioassays in semi-field and field. Both fungi were sprayed 12 times from December 2011 to January 2013 in the field at concentrations of 2.5x10 6 conidia/mL in 2000 L/ha and 5x10 6 conidia/mL in 1000 L/ha both with 0.075% of KBRAdj adjuvant. Only in January 2012 the chemical control was superior to all other treatments. In the remaining months, the mortalities caused by all the fungi treatments were similar to each other and similar to chemical control. The mortalities of adult D. citri by fungi ranged from 96.4 ± 3.8% (December/2011) to 57.8 ± 3.5% (October/2012). The effects of 27 agrochemicals on the vegetative growth and sporulation of colonies and conidia viability in vitro and in vivo virulence of the fungus after mixing it with each of the products were determined and showed that except the fungicides, the majority of products are compatible with the fungi and may be tank mixed. These results indicate that B. bassiana ESALQ-PL63 and I. fumosorosea ESALQ-1296 are promising for use in the control of D. citri in integrated pest management programs of citrus.
