Abstract

Bioprospecting was performed to detect hyperparasites Cicinobolus cesatii and Eudarluca caricis in central region of Guatemala to establish their presence and obtain promising strains to be use in biological control. Seven hundred and six samples from wild and cultivated plants were analyzed; C. cesatii was detected in 16 samples, and 46 cases of E. caricis. Both hyperparasites were identified in San Juan Comalapa and Tecpan of Chimaltenango County, having high biological potential and variability. Reproductive structures comparison of the different isolates was made and its variability was established through statistical analysis showing significant differences when they were compared between strains from the same site and between sites, also they showed difference between plant origins. These strains such as C. cesatii from Physalis sp. and E. caricis from Prunus sp., Zea mays, and Phaseolus vulgaris have a high potential. This research showed a high presence of both agents on wild plants or areas without application of fungicides.
