Zusammenfassung:The present invention relates to a method of increasing the germination rate of spores of a fungal microorganisms formulated in a liquid composition essentially free of water, comprising, prior to applying to a plant, plant part or locus where a plant is growing or intended to be grown, suspending said composition in an agriculturally acceptable water-based liquid in a ratio of liquid composition and water-based liquid of between 1000:1 and 1:10. The invention further relates to a method of increasing efficacy of a biological control agent based on spores of a fungal microorganisms and a method of controlling the quality of such biological control agents.
