Abstract
Abstract Fungicidal effects of glyphosate and glyphosate formulations on the entomopathogenic fungi Beauveria bassiana (Balsamo) Vuillemin, Metarhizium anisopliae (Metchnikoff) Sorokin, Nomuraea rileyi (Farlow) Samson, and Neozygites floridana Weiser & Muma were evaluated under laboratory conditions. Media previously inoculated with entomopathogenic fungi were exposed to distilled water, glyphosate (active ingredient), seven glyphosate formulations, and five blank formulations (carrier only). The fungicidal activity was determined by measuring inhibition in mycelial growth in solid media (B. bassiana, M. anisopliae, and N. rileyi), and spore concentration in liquid medium (N. floridana). Glyphosate did not have fungicidal activity against any of the fungi tested. Fungicidal properties of glyphosate formulations varied among fungal species. Neozygites floridana and M. anisopliae were susceptible to all glyphosate formulations. RoundUp Ready-To-Use was consistently the glyphosate formulation with one of the...
