The science

Mode of action

How Beauveria Bassiana works inside the plant and the soil.

  1. Cuticular adhesion and germination

    Beauveria bassiana conidia firmly adhere to the insect cuticle, germinate, and initiate infection under favorable environmental conditions.

  2. Enzymatic cuticle penetration

    Secretes proteases, lipases, and chitinases that enzymatically degrade insect cuticle, allowing successful penetration into the host body.

  3. Internal hemocoel colonization

    After penetration, the fungus proliferates within the insect hemocoel, disrupting vital physiological and metabolic processes.

  4. Toxin production inside host

    Produces insecticidal toxins such as beauvericin that cause paralysis, immune suppression, and eventual insect mortality.

  5. Secondary sporulation cycle

    Sporulates externally on insect cadavers after death, releasing new infective conidia for continued field persistence.
