A popular study is to analyze the effects of single doses of gamma radiation (70, 100, 125 and 150 Gy) sequentially or mixed with the Lethal Concentration 50 (LC₅₀) of certain entomopathogenic fungi (Beauveria bassiana, Paecilomyces lilacinus) against the Greater Wax Moth (GWM), Galleria mellonella selected biological aspects of the impact. Larval pupal period, percent pupation, percent adult pupation, sex ratio and percent adult survival of G. mellonella First Generation (F1).

Gamma irradiation and LC₅₀ of combined treatments of Beauveria bassiana and Paecilomyces lilacinus prolonged the larval-pupal period, while pupation, adult emergence, survival and sex ratio were lower in the combined treatment than in either treatment alone get more. Second-instar the wax moth larvae from male or female pupae irradiated to 70, 100 and 125 Gy were then treated with the LC₅₀ of Beauveria bassiana and Paecilomyces lilacinus, adversely affecting various biological aspects. The combined treatment was greater than either, in the case of fungal or irradiation treatment alone.
