What Is More Important to Host-Seeking Entomopathogenic Nematodes, Innate or Learned Preference?
Agriculture, 2023 Entomopathogenic nematodes (EPNs), small soil-dwelling non-segmented roundworms, are obligate parasites of insects and commonly used in agriculture for biological control of insect pests. For successful reproduction, EPNs must identify, move towards, and
