Dataset: The effect of the fungus Beauveria bassiana (Hypocreales) on the growth of Tulbaghia violacea and its ability to synthesize nano-particle insecticidal to mealybug

Can the entomopathogenic fungus Beauveria bassiana colonize wild garlic and induce enhanced bioactivity of the plant extracts? This study aimed to evaluate the effect of the entomopathogenic fungus Beauveria bassiana (Hypocreales) on the growth and ability of Tulbaghia violacea (wild garlic) to synthesise nanoparticles. T. violacea Harv. plants were inoculated by drenching with different concentrations of B. bassiana conidia. This dataset improves our understanding of the relationship between plants and endophytic fungi.
