Other claims from this paper (9)
- Intervention effect Entomopathogenic fungi elevated the transpiration rate and stomatal conductance of grapevine.
- Intervention effect Salicylic acid treatments decreased transpiration rate and stomatal conductance of grapevine.
- Intervention effect The high salicylic acid dose (10 mM) reduced the Fv/Fm value in grapevine, accompanied by phytotoxic spots on leaves.
- Intervention effect Spore germination of Beauveria bassiana and Isaria fumosorosea was significantly reduced only by the salicylic acid concentration of 2 mM.
- Intervention effect Salicylic acid at 0.5 and 1 mM did not affect spore germination of Beauveria bassiana and Isaria fumosorosea.
- Intervention effect The combination of Beauveria bassiana and salicylic acid gave the highest Lobesia botrana larval mortality, 87.5% at 28 °C.
- Intervention effect The combination of Isaria fumosorosea and salicylic acid gave the highest Lobesia botrana larval mortality, 77.5% at 24 °C.
- Intervention effect Salicylic acid reduced larval mycosis of Lobesia botrana in most cases.
- Recommendation The authors suggest that entomopathogenic fungi and salicylic acid can be co-applied in vineyard integrated strategies to support grapevine health.
