First report of an entomopathogenic nematode from continental Portugal [PDF]

, 2007
In continental Portugal no information is available concerning the occurrence of entomopathogenic nematodes. During a survey in several different habitats from the southern regions of the country, several isolates where identified as Steinernema feltiae.

Activity of entomopathogenic nematodes (Rhabditida) against cereal leaf beetle (Oulema melanopus [L.], Coleoptera, Chrysomelidae) adults under laboratory conditions

Acta Agriculturae Slovenica, 2010
In 2009, three Slovenian strains of entomopathogenic nematodes) and commercial product Entonem (active ingredient S. feltiae), were tested under laboratory conditions for their activity against adult cereal leaf beetles (Oulema melanopus).

Glucosinolate hydrolysis products suppress entomopathogenic nematodes in vitro but do not protect sequestering flea beetle larvae in vivo

Pest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 4, Page 3603-3612, April 2026.
The flea beetle's glucosinolate‐based chemical defense fails to protect larvae from nematode infection. However, the defense inhibits the nematode's symbiotic bacteria, thereby potentially impairing nematode reproduction and biocontrol success. Abstract BACKGROUND The efficacy of entomopathogenic nematodes (EPNs) in the biological control of insect ...

Distinct Morphological Traits of Korean Populations of Pryeria sinica Moore (Lepidoptera: Zygaenidae) Associated With Regional Variation

Entomological Research, Volume 56, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Pryeria sinica Moore is a significant pest of Celastraceae and Pentaphylacaceae plants, causing extensive defoliation in East Asia and beyond. Although its morphological and biological characteristics have been studied in China and Japan, detailed research on the Korean population remains limited.

Characterization of Xenorhabdus (γ-Proteobacteria) strains associated bacteria with the Steinernema (Nematoda: Steinernematidae) isolates from Iran [PDF]

نامه انجمن حشره‌شناسی ایران, 2011
The gram-negative bacterium Xenorhabdus is mutualistically associated with entomopathogenic nematode, Steinernema. Three bacterial strains were isolated from the entomopathogenic nematodes, Steinernema glaseri (Steiner) and S.

Escherichia coli Nissle 1917 Occupies Previously Undocumented Host Niches in the Insect‐Parasitic Nematode Steinernema hermaphroditum

Environmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 18, Issue 2, April 2026.
This study characterizes previously undocumented host tissues in Steinernema nematodes, including putative coelomocytes, intestinal compartments, and inter‐cuticular spaces colonized by Escherichia coli Nissle 1917. Our findings reveal niche‐specific microbial interactions distinct from those with native symbionts, establishing a platform for ...

The evolution of entomopathogeny in nematodes

Ecology 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 ...
