Summary
editDescriptionEchoes of the Inevitable - The Story Behind the Insect-Fungus System (Dorsal view).jpg |
English: Entomopathogenic fungi Beauveria bassiana emerging from Tenebrio molitor - Dorsal view. Close-up dorsal view of a specimen of Tenebrio molitor, also known as the mealworm, viewed through a magnifying glass. The insect exhibits clear signs of infection by the entomopathogenic fungus Beauveria bassiana. The surface of the insect's exoskeleton reveals the presence of characteristic structures of the hyaline fungus, such as spores and mycelium. The infective cycle of Beauveria bassiana begins with the adherence of conidia to the insect's cuticle, leading to entry, colonization, and the eventual death of T. molitor. Subsequently, the fungus emerges on the insect's surface and horizontally spreads to other insects, initiating new infective cycles. This image is valuable for illustrating the biology and pathology of the host-fungus relationship and may be of interest in the context of entomology and biological pest control.
Español: Vista dorsal en primer plano de un ejemplar de Tenebrio molitor, también conocido como gusano de la harina, visto a través de una lupa. El insecto muestra signos evidentes de infección por el hongo entomopatógeno Beauveria bassiana. La superficie del exoesqueleto del gusano revela la presencia de estructuras características del hongo hialino, como esporas y micelio. El ciclo infectivo de Beauveria bassiana comienza con la adhesión de los conidios en la cutícula del insecto, para ingresar, colonizar y provocar la muerte de T. molitor. Luego, el hongo emerge en la superficie del insecto y se disemina horizontalmente a otros insectos, iniciando nuevos ciclos infectivos. Esta imagen es valiosa para ilustrar la biología y patología de la relación hospedador-hongo, y puede ser de interés en el contexto de la entomología y el control biológico de plagas. |
