Evaluation of Pathogenicity of Entomopathogenic Oomycetes Lagenidium giganteum and L. ajelloi against Anopheles Mosquito Larvae
Table 2
Time taken by a specific concentration of Lagenidium ajelloi and L. giganteum zoospores to kill 50% larvae (LT50).

As expected, an increase in the concentration of zoospores resulted in a shorter LT50. The shortest LT50 was observed in L. ajelloi zoospores indicating that L. ajelloi is more potent against A. gambiae larvae compared to L. giganteum. |
