Virulence of new strain of Heterorhabditis bacteriophora from Croatia against Lasioptera rubi
Soil samples from 100 cultivated and natural sites were assessed for the presence of entomopathogenic nematodes. Heterorhabditid nematodes were recovered from three soil samples during spring months, with the overall positive sample rate of 3%.

Effects of Silver, Gold, and Platinum Nanoparticles on Selected Nematode Trophic Groups
As trophic organisms, nematodes play an essential role in the soil environment: they mineralize nutrients into plant-available forms, are a food source for other soil organisms, and feed on pathogenic organisms and plant pests, therefore regulating ...

Fungal entomopathogens: new insights on their ecology [PDF]
An important mechanism for insect pest control should be the use of fungal entomopathogens. Even though these organisms have been studied for more than 100 y, their effective use in the field remains elusive.

Biological control of insects using entomopathogenic nematodes
Biological control is the action of predators, parasitoids, or pathogens to maintain a pest organism's population at lower numbers than would occur in the absence of the agent.

Entomopathogenic nematodes (EPN) are parasites that are effective in controlling plant pests that can be propagated in vivo. In vivo propagation requires a host because EPN is an obligate parasite, one of which is the larvae of Hermetia illucens ...

Dissemination of Isaria fumosorosea Spores by Steinernema feltiae and Heterorhabditis bacteriophora
Entomopathogenic nematodes and fungi are globally distributed soil organisms that are frequently used as bioagents in biological control and integrated pest management. Many studies have demonstrated that the combination of biocontrol agents can increase
