insect pests such as the spruce budworm, gypsy moth, and grasshoppers. Applications of …

Entomophaga maimaiga is a naturally occurring fungal pathogen specific to larvae of the
gypsy moth, Lymantria dispar. E. maimaiga is thought to be native to Asia where its …

Erynia neoaphidis is the most widespread aphid pathogen in temperate regions. A few
authors have identified this species as infecting some non-aphid hosts. It exhibits high …

Polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-based technology, involving random amplification of
polymorphic DNA (RAPD), was used to assess the genomic variability between 24 isolates …

The two internal transcribed spacers (ITS) of ribosomal DNA are often used as markers of
populations of insects. We studied the ITS2 of the head lice and body lice of humans, to …
