Natural variation of outcrossing in the hermaphroditic nematode Pristionchus pacificus [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Background: Evolution of selfing can be associated with an increase in fixation of deleterious mutations, which in certain conditions can lead to species extinction.

Effect of certain entomopathogenic fungi and nematode on the desert locust Schistocerca gregaria (Forskal) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The efficiency of entomopathogenic fungi, Beauveria bassiana and Entomophthora sp. as well as the nematode, Steinernema carpocapsae, against 3rd, 5th instar nymphs and adults of the desert locust, Schistocerca gregaria (Forskal) had been studied under ...

The evolution of entomopathogeny in nematodes

open access: yesEcology and Evolution
Understanding how parasites evolved is crucial to understand the host and parasite interaction. The evolution of entomopathogenesis in rhabditid nematodes has traditionally been thought to have occurred twice within the phylum Nematoda: in ...

First results concerning the efficacy of entomopathogenic nematodes against Hercinothrips femoralis (Reuter)

open access: yesActa Agriculturae Slovenica, 2007
The efficacy of the entomopathogenic nematodes Steinernema feltiae and Heterorhabditis bacteriophora against larvae and adults of banded greenhouse thrips, Hercinothrips femoralis, was studied under laboratory conditions.

Distribution of entomopathogenic nematodes in Southern Cameroon

open access: yesJournal of Invertebrate Pathology, 2012
A first survey of entomopathogenic nematodes (EPN) was conducted in three agro-ecological zones of Southern Cameroon in 2007 and 2008. Entomopathogenic nematodes were recovered from 26 of 251 soil samples (10.4%). Three species, Heterorhabditis baujardi, Steinernema sp. A and Steinernema sp. B were found.

A Novel Ascaroside Controls the Parasitic Life Cycle of the Entomopathogenic Nematode Heterorhabditis bacteriophora

open access: yes, 2016
Entomopathogenic nematodes survive in the soil as stress-resistant infective juveniles that seek out and infect insect hosts. Upon sensing internal host cues, the infective juveniles regurgitate bacterial pathogens from their gut that ultimately kill the

Virulence of new strain of Heterorhabditis bacteriophora from Croatia against Lasioptera rubi

open access: yesPlant Protection Science, 2019
Soil samples from 100 cultivated and natural sites were assessed for the presence of entomopathogenic nematodes. Heterorhabditid nematodes were recovered from three soil samples during spring months, with the overall positive sample rate of 3%.

Conspecific pheromone extracts enhance entomopathogenic infectivity

open access: yesJournal of Nematology, 2019
Entomopathogenic nematodes (EPNs) provide economic control of various insect pests. However, field efficacy can be inconsistent. The ability of a nematode to find and infect (invade) a host insect is critical to successful pathogenesis.
