Abstract
The study was conducted to evaluate the efficiency of commercial formulation of fungi Metarhiziumanisopliae with three concentration 2 , 4 , 6 gm/Liter in protection of olive trees against infestation with termite M. diversus (Silv.). The field results showed that the different concentration of fungi was highly effects in fluctuation with infestation percentage of olive trees and gradual decreasing of termite workers in the stem of trees . Two decreasing with number of workers depend on the concentration of fungi in which the high concentrate 6 gm / L was higher marked superiority in the gradual decreasing and laek of presence after six months of treatment , which did not differ significantly from Morsban 48 % TC ( Chlorpyrifos) . Due to the results we can recommended to using the fungi as biological pesticide which human safity and friendly environment in protection of olive trees against termite infestation transaction to be returned every six months.
