Termite mortality after 11 d when exposed to Metarhizium anisopliae in planar arena.

†The sand introduced into the arenas was treated with a solution of 0.05% Tween80 containing a suspension of M. anisopliae conidia ranging from 0 to 2.0×105 conidia/g.‡The hazard ratio of death is displayed using 6×104 c/g (≈LD50) as a reference point.¤Pairwise comparison of survivorship using a Cox proportional-hazards regression model (α = 0.05, modified with the Holm-Bonferroni method). The same letter indicates no significant difference of ratio of death among treatments (300 termites per treatment).
