Biochar Suppresses Growth, Pupation and Eclosion Success of a Specialist (Manduca sexta) and a Generalist (Spodoptera frugiperda) Insect Herbivore

open access: yesJournal of Sustainable Agriculture and Environment, Volume 4, Issue 2, June 2025.
ABSTRACT Biochar is a charcoal‐like substance made by the pyrolysis of organic material from agricultural and forestry waste. While biochar is well documented for altering soil physicochemical conditions, few studies have investigated its possible effects on the management of arthropod pests.

Testing the potential of entomopathogenic nematodes in attract‐and‐kill and autodissemination approaches in the control of Queensland fruit fly, Bactrocera tryoni

open access: yesPest Management Science, Volume 81, Issue 1, Page 160-169, January 2025.
Entomopathogenic nematodes (EPNs) delivered in a fly‐attractive aqueous yeast hydrolysate solution cause high levels of mortality in Queensland fruit fly. Infected flies can still fly and thereby disperse EPNs before the flies succumb to infection. Abstract BACKGROUND Many studies have demonstrated that tephritid fruit fly larvae are highly susceptible

FIGURE 6 in Heterorhabditis beicherriana n. sp. (Nematoda: Heterorhabditidae), a new entomopathogenic nematode from the Shunyi district of Beijing, China

open access: yes, 2012
FIGURE 6. Phylogeny reconstructed from ITS rDNA sequences of Heterorhabditis species. Only bacteriophora and megidis- groups are shown. Heterorhabditis beicherriana n. sp. has eight characters that change unambiguously on branch and five autapomorphies (=

Natural products from Xenorhabdus and Photorhabdus show promise as biolarvicides against Aedes albopictus

open access: yesPest Management Science, Volume 80, Issue 9, Page 4231-4242, September 2024.
Entomopathogenic organisms are novel biopesticide sources. Xenorhabdus and Photorhabdus spp. are quite effective against Aedes albopictus larvae. Fabclavine can be developed into biolarvicides or used as a model to synthesize new compounds. Abstract BACKGROUND In the perpetual struggle to manage mosquito populations, there has been increasing demand ...

Evaluation of Indigenous Entomopathogenic Nematodes as Potential Biocontrol Agents against Popillia japonica (Coleoptera: Scarabaeidae) in Northern Italy

open access: yesInsects, 2020
The natural presence of entomopathogenic nematodes (EPNs) has been investigated in the Piedmont region (Northern Italy) in areas infested by the Japanese beetle Popillia japonica. Thirty-nine out of 155 soil samples (25.2%) were positive for EPNs.

Assessment of Azorean native strains of Heterorhabditis bacteriophora for the biological control of Popillia japonica

open access: yesJournal of Applied Entomology, Volume 148, Issue 8, Page 977-982, September 2024.
Abstract Entomopathogenic nematodes (EPNs), especially Heterorhabditis bacteriophora, are promising candidates for biological control of Popillia japonica larvae. Thus, there is a need to study native strains to ensure biological agents adapted to specific environmental conditions to improve their effectiveness in field applications. This work aimed to

Comparative study of element contents in seven isolates of entomopathogenic nematodes

open access: yesEgyptian Journal of Biological Pest Control, 2018
Little is known about element contents in the entomopathogenic nematodes despite their vital role in the growth and development of all organisms. Ten element contents of seven nematode isolates were determined. No significant differences were observed in
