| Abstract | ||
| The fungus Fusarium semitectum was isolated from fruit stalk borer Oryctes elegans larvae for the first time in Iraq during April 2011, The fungus was grown on PDA medium.Its pathogenicity was tested on wax worm larvae Galleria melonella and on the date palm (Hillawi and Albethiri cultivars). The results showed that F. semitectum killed the insect larvae at a percent of 100% after 7 days from the treatment, while it has been no infection was noticed on the palm for both cultivars and three treatment methods (spray, injury and coverage) when they treated with the fungus. | ||
