Endophytic entomopathogenic fungi remodel phyllosphere microbiome and metabolome to suppress Spodoptera frugiperda and enhance parasitoid biocontrol
Fungal colonization remodels the phyllosphere microbiome and metabolome, thereby impairing pest development and reproduction. GL 5 increases the parasitism rate and cocoon weight of the parasitoid Microplitis manilae, enabling synergistic biological control.
