Abstract: In this study, the compatibility between the mycoinsecticide strain, Metarhizium anisopliae CQMa421, and insecticides and germicides was evaluated by investigating the effects of insecticide and germicide on conidial germination. The 25 insecticides and 11 germicides that were compatible with CQMa421 are commonly used to control pest insects of rice, vegetables, and tea, and disease of rice and vegetable. The results showed that the composition and concentration of the insecticides and germicides affect M. anisopliae CQMa421 conidial germination. Their formulation can also affect conidial germination. The effects of some pesticides or germicides containing the same active ingredient on conidial germination varied significantly among different manufacturers. These results provide a basis for the combined use of this entomopathogenic fungus with insecticides and germicides.
