**2.3 Influence of liquid media composition on the growth of blastospores of entomopathogenic fungi**

The optical densities of the inocula of all the studied fungi grown on different media after different time intervals such as 20 h, 40 h and 60 h were measured at 600 nm (OD600) by using a spectrophotometer (Shimadzu UV-1800). The media without inoculation were used as control.
