Larvae of the New Zealand grass grub (Costelytra zealandica) were treated with the entomopathogenic fungus, Metarhizium anisopliae, and the bacterium, Serratia entomophila, singly and in combination. The mortality of second instar larvae up to 41 days in treatments with both pathogens together was significantly greater than the additive mortalities of single pathogen treatments, and therefore synergistic. Treatment of third instar larvae with both pathogens did not increase mortality compared with the fungus alone. Second instar larvae were more resistant to M. anisopliae than third instar larvae. S. entomophila causes a chronic disease and bacterial treatments alone resulted in disease, but little mortality for either instar within 5 weeks. In both fungus alone and fungus/bacteria treatments, less than half the cadavers supported fungal sporulation. The use of a dual pathogen system for control of grass grub larvae is discussed. |
