Chemical cues shaping host-seeking by entomopathogenic nematodes.
Current Opinion in Insect Science, 2021 Entomopathogenic nematodes (EPNs) are obligate parasites that infect a broad range of insect species. Host-seeking is a crucial step for EPN infection success and survival.

Risk taking of educated nematodes. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2018 Nematode parasites rely on successful host infection to perpetuate their species. Infection by individual nematode parasites can be risky, however; any one individual could be killed by the host's immune response.

Optimizing Sampling and Extraction Methods for Plant-Parasitic and Entomopathogenic Nematodes
Plants, 2021 Plant-parasitic and entomopathogenic nematodes (PPNs and EPNs) are key groups in crop production systems. This study aims at optimizing nematode sampling and extraction methods to benefit integrated pest management (IPM) through (a) management of PPNs ...
