MSc thesis by Tuomas Kara
Tuomas Kara has finished his Master’s Thesis titled “Endophytic potential of entomopathogenic fungi Beauveria bassiana on Brassica napus for plant protection”.
He investigated whether an entomopathogenic fungi, Beauveria bassiana, can be used for pest management in Brassica napus. He found out that B. bassiana was able to establish itself endophytically in B. napus through seed treatment. Thus, B. bassiana is a potential candidate for pest management in B. napus cultivation.
