Antimicrobial Activities of Symbiotic and Non-symbiotic Bacteria Associated with the Entomopathogenic Nematode, Steinernema feltiae

open access: yesJournal of Pure and Applied Microbiology
The use of antibiotics against a range of pathogenic bacteria has increased in recent years, leading to the development of drug resistance, which makes disease control challenging.

The nesting preference of an invasive ant is associated with the cues produced by actinobacteria in soil.

open access: yesPLoS Pathogens, 2020
Soil-dwelling animals are at risk of pathogen infection in soils. When choosing nesting sites, animals could reduce this risk by avoiding contact with pathogens, yet there is currently little evidence.

Symbiont‐Induced HSP83 Establishes Two‐Tiered Control of Antifungal Immunity in an Invasive Beetle–Fungus Complex

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
In an invasive beetle–fungus complex, the mutualist Leptographium procerum induces host HSP83 and modulates Toll‐dependent antifungal immunity. HSP83 mediates two‐tiered control by associating with selected fungal recognition receptors and restraining Dorsal‐driven antimicrobial peptide transcription.

Host Seeking and the Genomic Architecture of Parasitism among Entomopathogenic Nematodes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Nematodes represent an especially abundant and species-rich phylum, with many free-living and parasitic species. Among the diversity of parasitic species is a guild of specialists known as entomopathogenic nematodes due to their unusual ability to ...

POTENTIAL ENTOMOPATHOGENIC BACTERIA ISOLATED FROM EXTREME CONDITION AREA SIDOARJO MUD, INDONESIA AGAINST Spodoptera litura FAB (LEPIDOPTERA: NOCTUIDAE) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
Biological control by using entomopathogenic bacteria shows potential to be developed as an alternative technique to control Spodoptera litura. Bacteria that can live in extreme environments are reported to have high efficiency and the ability to survive

Bacterial insecticides beyond Bacillus thuringiensis

open access: yesPhytopathology Research
Bacterial insecticides have emerged as a biotechnological strategy for controlling insect pests in crops, primarily due to the ineffectiveness of synthetic pesticides, which have led to resistance in insect populations due to their overuse.

Molecular identification of Heliothine species by nuclear and mitochondrial PCR-RFLP profile [PDF]

open access: yesنامه انجمن حشره‌شناسی ایران
The taxonomy of the Heliothinae subfamily is complex, often becoming an obstacle in the identification of these species, especially during the larval stage.

Advances in research on autophagy in the maintenance of insect–microbe symbiosis

open access: yesNew Plant Protection, EarlyView.
Autophagy plays a dual regulatory role in insect–microbe symbiotic relationships. Beneficial symbiotic bacteria in insects participate in nutrient exchange via the TOR pathway, whereas pathogenic microbes induce immune defense through the AMPK pathway. Autophagy‐related genes regulate development and pathogen clearance during this process.

Antagonists and defense mechanisms of entomopathogenic nematodes and their mutualistic bacteria

open access: yesBiological Control, 2021
Abstract Entomopathogenic nematodes (EPNs) in the families Steinernematidae and Heterorhabditidae are effective biocontrol agents against a number of important soil insect pests and are safe to vertebrates, plants and other non-target organisms with no negative effects on the environment.
