| Resumo: |
Different strains of Bacillus thuringiensis Berliner were proved to be a powerful biologic insecticide against larvae of several insect orders. Due to the epidemiological importance of blowflies of the Chrysomya Robineau-Desvoidy genus in the production of secondary cutaneous myiasis and mechanic transmission of pathogenic agents, the performance of two strains of B. thuringiensis (LFB-FIOCRUZ 907 and LFB-FIOCRUZ 856) was tested against larvae of Chrysomya putoria (Wiedemann). The LFB-FIOCRUZ 907 strain was tested in four different concentrations, added to the diet; the LFB-FIOCRUZ 856 strain was tested in three concentrations. C. putoria larvae showed sensibility to the treatment with the LFB-FIOCRUZ 907 strain at the tested concentrations. The higher concentration presented the best efficiency, causing higher mortality and reducing larval weight and adult emergence more intensely. The LFB-FIOCRUZ 856 strain showed low toxicity, sliglity reducing emergence time of adults at 326 mg/ 25 g concentration and larval weight at 326 mg/ 25 g and 86 mg/ 25 g concentrations.
