The effects of soil moisture, soil texture, and host orientation on the ability of Heterorhabditis bacteriophora (Rhabditida: Heterorhabditidae) to infect Galleria mellonella (Lepidoptera: Pyralidae) [PDF]
, 2018 Entomopathogenic nematodes (EPN) demonstrate potential as a biological control for soil dwelling insects. However, edaphic factors, such as soil moisture and texture impact the efficacy of EPN on a host. The objectives were to examine the effects of soil

The influence of habitat quality on the foraging strategies of the entomopathogenic nematodes Steinernema carpocapsae and Heterorhabditis megidis [PDF]
, 2010 Entomopathogenic nematodes (EPN) are soil-transmitted parasites and their foraging strategies are believed to range from ‘ambush’ to ‘cruise’ foragers. However, research on their behaviour has not considered the natural habitat of these nematodes.

Virulence of new strain of Heterorhabditis bacteriophora from Croatia against Lasioptera rubi
Plant Protection Science, 2019 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
Journal of Horticultural Research, 2023 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 ...

Global distribution of entomopathogenic nematodes, Steinernema and Heterorhabditis
Egyptian Journal of Biological Pest Control, 2020 Entomopathogenic nematodes (EPNs) in the families’ Steinernematidae and Heterorhabditidae are obligate insect parasites. Their easy multiplication, broad host range, compatibility with chemical pesticides, and ease in application has grabbed interest ...

Jurnal Agrotek Tropika, 2022 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 ...

Draft Genome Sequence of Photorhabdus luminescens subsp. laumondii HP88, an Entomopathogenic Bacterium Isolated from Nematodes [PDF]
, 2016 Photorhabdus luminescens subsp. laumondii HP88 is an entomopathogenic bacterium that forms a symbiotic association with Heterorhabditis nematodes. We report here a 5.27-Mbp draft genome sequence for P. luminescens subsp.
