Compatibility studies of Heterorhabditis indica with newer insecticides under laboratory condition

open access: yesEnvironment Conservation Journal, 2022
Entomopathogenic nematodes (EPNs) have been identified as promising biocontrol agents for controlling economically important insect pests of agricultural and horticultural crops. The compatibility of entomopathogenic nematode Heterorhabditis indica with

Optimizing Entomopathogenic Nematode Genetics and Applications for the Integrated Management of Horticultural Pests

open access: yesHorticulturae, 2023
Entomopathogenic nematodes (EPNs) can kill and recycle in their host populations, which bodes well for EPNs’ exploitation in long-term and safe pest management.

Entomopathogenic nematodes increase predation success by inducing cadaver volatiles that attract healthy herbivores

open access: yeseLife, 2019
Herbivore natural enemies protect plants by regulating herbivore populations. Whether they can alter the behavior of their prey to increase predation success is unknown. We investigate if and how infection by the entomopathogenic nematode Heterorhabditis

GameXPeptide synergistically enhances the control efficiency of Metarhizium anisopliae by inhibiting cotton aphid immunity

open access: yesNew Plant Protection, EarlyView.
In this research, GXP serves as a potent synergist for Metarhizium anisopliae in controlling cotton aphids. Its synergistic effect is achieved through two key mechanisms: first, by downregulating melanization protease 1 expression to inhibit phenoloxidase activity, thereby suppressing melanization; second, by reducing hypoxanthine levels, which ...

Lecanicillium aphanocladii: a biocontrol agent against insect pests and phytopathogens

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Recent research findings on the biocontrol potential of Lecanicillium aphanocladii fungus against insect‐pests and plant diseases were highlighted. This review indicates that several L. aphanocladii strains show great potential to be developed as multipurpose biocontrol agents active against several insect‐pests, plant diseases and plant parasitic ...

Wheat fertilization affects oviposition preference of wheat midge, Sitodiplosis mosellana (Géhin) (Diptera: Cecidomyiidae)

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Wheat fertilization increased plant growth, nitrogen and protein levels, influencing the wheat volatile profile and affecting female wheat midge choice to lay eggs. This could partly result from the observed changes in the VOC profile. Abstract BACKGROUND In Canada, the orange wheat blossom midge (hereafter called wheat midge), Sitodiplosis mosellana ...

Comparative effects of entomopathogenic fungi and nematodes and bacterial supernatants against rice white tip nematode

open access: yesEgyptian Journal of Biological Pest Control, 2018
The rice white tip nematode, Aphelenchoides besseyi, is the primarily important seed-borne pest of rice and was first recorded in Turkey in 1995. These biological agents, such as an entomopathogenic fungus (EPF), entomopathogenic nematodes (EPN), and ...
