Abstract
This study describes intra specific variability among Metarhizium ansiopliae strains in terms of their ability to produce blastospores in selected liquid culture media. Blastospore production of 10 strains was evaluated in 6 different media representing different carbon and nitrogen sources. Irrespective of strain, media containing corn steep and yeast extract provided highest blastospore yield. Among different strains F10, ERL607, ARSEF 3297 and ARSEF 4556 produced significantly (p
