Abstract
A laboratory study was done in the college of Agriculture, University of Baghdad to explain the impact of the pathogens, Nomuraea rileyi(which was isolated laboratory of larvae infected by naturally) with 159.1×105 spores,Bacillus thuringiensis Kurstaki with concentration recommended on larvae and adult wax moth Galleria mellonella. Results showed that when treated the larvae and adults wax mouth Galleria mellonella results to outweigh the treatment of larvae fungus on its treatment with bacteria which gave Add the fungi to food in increasing the proportion of larvae dead and which achieved percentage kill the larvae reached 61.43% for the treatment of spray-Fitr on larvae which achieved percentage killed was 50.71%, and excelled treatment add bacteria Bacillus thuringiensis Kurstaki to food in increasing the proportion of dead larvae, which achieved a death rate of larvae reached 53.3%, while in the treatment of direct spraying bacteria commentator on larvae achieved a rate of 28.6%. Results also indicated that B. thuringiensis Kurstaki had the height impact on adults (females) treatment has reached the age of female treatment 1.33, 4.33 days, respectively in the treatment of (male treated with female treated) and ages of females 1.33, 4.67 days, respectively in the treatment of (male un treated with female treatment). Results also showed that the impact on members of the second generation was significant compared to other factors where the average life span of females in both )0.0 ( day on the percentage of eggs is un hatching 100 . While transaction gave Nomuraea rileyi adult lower the average age for females was 13.00 days in treatment healthy males with females (male un treated with female treatment.
