Abstract
Entomopathogenic fungi (EPF) have been used as insect biocontrol agents separately and in integrated pest management (1PM) worldwide including in the Latin Americas. The proper use of these agents along with other elements and concepts of 1PM has significant impact on the provision of crops. fruits and other agricultura! products Entomopathogenic fungi can play a significant role in the preservation of the natural delicate balance of beneficia! biota and their active spreading from the surrounding natural habitats, such as the tropical rain forest, the humid cloudy forest in the Andes and other important ecosystems, to the agricultura} lands in Central and South America. Of ali known EPF, there are only about half a dozen for which prerequisite aspects of fungal biotechnology for industrial R and D are in place. Because of its precedent setting leadership in the use ofEPF in 1PM and agroecological practices, LatinAmerica stands to gain irnrnensely here and more so if the concept of rational design of bioinsecticides (RADBIO) is employed. The future prospects will depend on a balance of discovery research coupled to a strong and dependable industrialization effort to develop the framework for illustrating public acceptance, commercialization potential and widespread use of EPF in 1PM. The potential for the next generation of mycoinsecticides is now loorning on the horizon.
