Entomopathogenic nematode dispensing robot: NEMABOT
Expert Systems with Applications, 2021Abstract 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
2016In 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.

Advance of entomopathogenic nematodes
Journal of Forestry Research, 2001This 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.

Post-application Persistence of Entomopathogenic Nematodes
Biocontrol Science and Technology, 1996Five phases can be distinguished in the post-application persistence of entomopathogenic nematodes and each phase is associated with a specific set of mortality factors. Pre-application factors associated with production, storage and transport conditions determine the survival rate and quality of nematodes at the time of application.

Survival mechanism of entomopathogenic nematodes
2016 International Congress of Entomology, 1996Entomopathogenic 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, 2020The 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 ...

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
1998Entomopathogenic 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
2014Entomopathogenic 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.
