- Intervention effect Both formulations reduced potato tuber damage by 13.6% in field trials.
- Intervention effect Greenhouse effectiveness rose to 44-54% at higher application rates.
- Association High pest pressure, low soil temperatures, limited fungal proliferation and poor product stability constrained field effectiveness.
- Observation The isolate showed species-specific virulence among three wireworm species.
- Recommendation Practical application requires improved formulations and an optimized application strategy adapted to crop rotation.
