OverviewAI-generated summary

Neelam Joshi investigates the pathogenicity of various microorganisms and their potential applications in pest control. Her research includes studies on Nucleopolyhedrovirus (NPV) and *Metarhizium rileyi* isolates against *Spodoptera litura* (Fabricius), evaluating their efficacy and the role of extracellular enzymatic activities. She has also explored the effectiveness of *Lecanicillium lecanii* against the mustard aphid *Lipaphis erysimi* (Kalt.), examining chitinase enzyme activity and pathogenicity. Further research has involved evaluating adjuvants to enhance the growth and virulence of *Metarhizium rileyi*. In addition to entomopathogenic fungi, Joshi has explored the role of endosymbionts in insect-vectored plant diseases, specifically the association of *Arsenophonus* with the transmission of Cotton Leaf Curl Virus by *Bemisia tabaci*. Her work also extends to immunological studies, including research on the immunoproteasome in rat kidney allografts following cold storage.
