Table 3 Mean of mortality of Spodoptera frugiperda larvae treated with different conidia concentrations of the two isolates displaying the highest mortality rates in the single-concentration assay at 10-day post-treatment

From: Impact of the fall armyworm, Spodoptera frugiperda (J. E. Smith) (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae), invasion on maize and the native Spodoptera litura (Fabricius) in East Java, Indonesia, and evaluation of the virulence of some indigenous entomopathogenic fungus isolates for controlling the pest
