Advance of entomopathogenic nematodes

Journal of Forestry Research, 2001
This paper summarized the history and present condition of studying and utilizing entomopathogenic nematodes at home and abroad, expounded its taxonomy, life cycle and the mechanism with symbiotic bacteria killing host insect. Taxonomy, mycelial form, pathogenic function and anti-bacteria function of symbiotic bacteria were introduced.

Entomopathogenic nematode dispensing robot: NEMABOT

Expert Systems with Applications, 2021
Abstract Entomopathogenic nematodes (EPN) are obligate endoparasites of many insect species and they are important biocontrol agents. Application strategies that improve precision and reduce labor would increase their potential in many cropping systems. We developed a unique robotic system to apply EPNs to a surface area precisely. The robotic system

In Vivo Production of Entomopathogenic Nematodes

2016
In nature, entomopathogenic nematodes in the genera Heterorhabditis and Steinernema are obligate parasites of insects. The nematodes are used widely as biopesticides for suppression of insect pests. More than a dozen entomopathogenic nematode species have been commercialized for use in biological control.

Survival mechanism of entomopathogenic nematodes

2016 International Congress of Entomology, 1996
Entomopathogenic nematodes (Steinernematidae and Heterorhabditidae) are isolated from a wide variety of ecosystems ranging from sub-Arctic to arid and tropical climates. It is expected that natural populations of these nematodes will be pre-adapted to specific ecological conditions in their environments.

Susceptibility of entomopathogenic nematodes to ivermectin and thiabendazole

Chemosphere, 2020
The objective of the present study was to determine the susceptibility of entomopathogenic nematodes to ivermectin and thiabendazole. Soil samples collected from the municipalities of Irapuato and León, Guanajuato, Mexico, were obtained, from which the entomopathogenic nematodes (EPNs) of the Steinernematidae and Heterorhabditidae families were ...

Entomopathogenic Nematodes

2011
The nematodes establish various and characteristic relationships with the insects; in particular the EPNs belonging to the orders Mermithida, Rhabditida, Aphelenchida and Tylenchida, show interesting association with exapods and some species are used in controlling insect pests.

Formulation of Entomopathogenic Nematodes

1998
Entomopathogenic nematodes in the families Steinernematidae and Heterorhabditidae have been known since 1929 and 1975, respectively (Glaser and Fox, 1930; Poinar, 1975; Gaugler and Kaya, 1990), but they became commercially available only during the past decade (Georgis, 1992).

Entomopathogenic Nematodes as Biopesticides

2014
Entomopathogenic nematodes (EPNs) are microbial control agents which have become important in biological control or integrated pest management of insect pests as biopesticides. EPNs are widespread all over the world and are found in almost all places where there is agricultural land and forests, and in the desert where there are desert plants.

Forest Applications of Entomopathogenic Nematodes

The application of entomopathogenic nematodes (EPNs) for the control of insect pests of trees in the broadest sense is reviewed. First considered are pests of trees outside of woodlands and forests, typically in urban environments. Next, pests of deciduous forests and their control are dealt with before moving on to pests of coniferous forests.
