Abstract
⺠Granular entomopathogenic fungi were tested in soil against western flower thrips. ⺠Experimental and registered Beauveria strains were tested in cages in a greenhouse. ⺠Thrips damage was less on marigolds treated with experimental fungi than controls. ⺠Thrips numbers were less on marigolds treated with experimental fungi than controls. ⺠Experimental isolates outperformed the registered strain for managing thrips.
