Tritrophic Effects of Host Plants on an Herbivore-Pathogen Interaction [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Tritrophic interactions may include directly harmful effects of host plants on herbivores, and directly or indirectly harmful effects of host plants on the natural enemies of herbivores.

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

open access: yesنامه 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.

Intraspecific variability of Steinernema feltiae (Filipjev) (Rhabditida: Steinernematidae) as biological control agent of rice weevil (Sitophilus oryzae [L.], Coleoptera, Curculionidae) adults

open access: yesActa Agriculturae Slovenica, 2010
The efficacy of three strains (B30, B49 in 3162) of Steinernema feltiae to control adults of rice weevil (Sitophilus oryzae) was tested in a laboratory experiment in 2009.

State-space based mass event-history model I: many decision-making agents with one target

open access: yes, 2009
A dynamic decision-making system that includes a mass of indistinguishable agents could manifest impressive heterogeneity. This kind of nonhomogeneity is postulated to result from macroscopic behavioral tactics employed by almost all involved agents.

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

open access: yesEntomological 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.

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

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

open access: yesEnvironmental 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 ...

Draft Genome Sequence of Photorhabdus luminescens Strain BA1, an Entomopathogenic Bacterium Isolated from Nematodes Found in Egypt [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Photorhabdus luminescens strain BA1 is an entomopathogenic bacterium that forms a symbiotic association with Heterorhabditis nematodes. We report here a 5.0-Mbp draft genome sequence for P.
