Beauveria bassiana can be referred to as aentomopathogenic fungi that can trigger white muscadine disease in a variety of insects such as the whiteflies, aphids, thrips, grasshoppers and specific type of beetles. It varies from nosema locustae in that it does not need to be consumed by the host. Once the host insect is infected, the fungus speedily grows inside of the insect, feeding on the nutrients present in the host's body and creating toxins in the process.
