Abstract
Nosema pyrausta, an entomopathogenic microsporidium, is an important population regulator of the European corn borer, Ostrinia nubilalis. This manuscript is a review of research on the relationships between N. pyrausta and O. nubilalis. N. pyrausta was described from O. nubilalis in Hungary in 1927 and from O. nubilalis in IA in 1950. It affects the basic biology of O. nubilalis by slowing larval development, reducing percentage pupation, and...
