Beauveria Bassiana as a biocontroller of apple snail (Pomacea Canaliculata) under laboratory conditions

Abstract

This research experimental work aimed to evaluate the biopesticide to control the mass of snail egg apple in the laboratory of the Agrarian University of Ecuador, the dose of Beauveria was determined bassiana best I control the presence of mass snail eggs apple and identification of the most appropriate dose in the treatments performed. The statistical evaluation of the data was performed by analysis of variance, and average treatment was performed with the Tukey test at 5% probability, achieving verify averages mass snail eggs dead apple, the best he could appreciate that the recommended dose is (Beauveria bassiana 4cm / liter of water) with an average of 100% does not differ significantly with absolute control; I could conclude that the hypothesis was fully approved as this does not generate environmental impact.
