Experiences with entomopathogenic nematodes for the control of overwintering codling moth larvae in Germany [PDF]
Entomopathogenic nematodes were tested for their potential as tool in resistance management of codling moth Cydia pomonella L. in organic fruit growing. In two field tests, the adults emerging from stems treated with nematodes were monitored.
