Leafcutter ants are considered pests in agriculture for their impact in human crops, as they behave utilizing foliar fragments to raise their simbiont fungi (Agaricales: Lepiotaceae) inside their nest. Recent studies have noticed that other fungi may be associated to ants inside their nests, for instance, fungi with melanized wall, known by “dematiaceous”. Historically, many black fungi have been noticed as fitopathogens of many plant cultures with economic importance, highlighting dematiaceous ecological behavior importance in this study. This investigation had the purpose of amplifying ecological knowledge of this fungi, isolating and identificating dematiaceous fungi found in Attini nests, having the intention of understanding plant pathogens dispersion by ants. In this work, 66 isolates were characterized in the following genus: Aspergillus, Penicillium, Paecilomyces, Oxyporus, Rhodotorula, Bipolaris, Curvularia, Fusarium, Giberella, Paraphaeosphaeria, and Cladosporium. The genus Bipolaris, Curvularia, Fusarium and Giberella are known for their opportunistic behaviour, with some published human infections in literature. Fusarium is a notorious fitopathogen, with wide number of descriptions and studies involving pathogenicity development, biochemistry and genetics. The isolates outline is of phyto – associated (phytopathogens, endophytic or epiphitic), fulfilling this work intention in alarming fungi capacity of dispersal by ants. The comprehension of phytopathogenical processes may be clarified based on the knowledge of oportunistics fungi that may utilize ants bodies for their own dispersal. The identification of isolates with capacity of infecting humans brings out public health issues.

The bronze bug Thaumastocoris peregrinus (Hemiptera: Thaumastocoridae) was detected in Brazil in 2008 and infested >180 000 ha of eucalyptus plantations in 2011. The bronze bug can cause a reduction of 10–15% in wood productivity after 2 years of heavy infestation. Although there is not an effective control method known, biological control is the main control strategy studied. An exotic egg parasitoid, Cleruchoides noackae (Hymenoptera: Mymaridae), was imported from Australia in 2012, reared in a laboratory and released in three Brazilian regions. Parasitoids were recovered at release points after 20–30 d. In 2013, preliminary evaluations demonstrated parasitoid establishment in these areas, and the parasitoid was recovered in adjacent areas after 1 year of release. Bioassays confi rmed egg parasitism of 15–20% by C. noackae. Other native natural enemies were studied. We found green lacewing Chrysoperla externa and predatory bugs Supputius cincticeps and Atopozelus opsimus preying on nymphs and/or adults of T. peregrinus. Another promising possibility is entomopathogenic fungi. Commercial formulations of Beauveria bassiana were tested with success in lab and fi eld conditions. Fusarium proliferatum and Paecilomyces cateniannulatus caused mortality of T. peregrinus in natural epizooties. After 5 years of research, it is possible to develop an integrated pest management system (IPM) for eucalyptus plantations based on biocontrol strategy for bronze bug.

El cacao es afectado por una diversidad de microorganismos patógenos, entre ellos el hongo Moniliophthora roreri (Cif. & Par., Evans et al.,) causante de la moniliasis, que es una de las enfermedades de mayor importancia de este cultivo. El uso irracional de plaguicidas sintéticos para el manejo de esta enfermedad ha generado problemas al agroecosistema y la salud humana, por lo que se está demandando el uso de alternativas agroecológicas. En este contexto, el objetivo principal de esta investigación fue generar información acerca de la capacidad antagónica in vitro mostrada por hongos nativos contra la moniliasis del cacao. Se recolectaron muestras de suelo, hojas, corteza, frutos sanos y enfermos en tres zonas cacaoteras de Nicaragua para la caracterización morfológica del patógeno y de los potenciales microorganismos antagonistas. Las pruebas de antagonismo “in vitro” se realizaron a través de la técnica del cultivo dual. Se evaluó el crecimiento radial del patógeno y de los antagonistas, el porcentaje de inhibición del crecimiento radial (PICR) del patógeno y la capacidad de control biológico de los hongos antagonistas. Se probaron cuatro técnicas para la conservación de los hongos antagonistas. Se obtuvieron cuatro aislados del patógeno M. roreri y 17 aislados de hongos antagonistas. El PICR del patógeno ejercida por aislados del antagonista Trichoderma varió de 40.13% a 46.77%, en los aislados del antagonista Paecilomyces el PICR osciló entre 59.38% y 67.43%, en el único aislado del antagonista Clonostachys el PICR fue de 62.33%-67.22%. Los 17 aislados se ubicaron en las clases 1, 2 y 3 de la escala de valoración de antagonismo. La mejor técnica de conservación de hongos antagonistas y de M. roreri fue la de conservación con glicerol. Los resultados de este estudio indican que en el agroecosistema de cacao existen microorganismos nativos que tienen potencial para ser usados como agentes de control biológico del patógeno M. roreri.
