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

Pest categorisation of Diaphania indica

open access: yesEFSA Journal, Volume 22, Issue 5, May 2024.
Abstract The EFSA Panel on Plant Health performed a pest categorisation of Diaphania indica (Lepidoptera: Crambidae), the cucumber moth for the territory of the European Union (EU), following the commodity risk assessment of Jasminum polyanthum from Uganda, in which D. indica was identified as a pest of possible concern to the European Union. D. indica

Virulence comparisons of high-temperature-adapted Heterorhabditis bacteriophora, Steinernema feltiae and S. carpocapsae

open access: yesHelminthologia, 2015
Entomopathogenic nematodes (EPNs) are environmentally safe alternative control agents. Nematodes in the Heterorhabditidae and Steinernematidae families are widely used in biological control frameworks, especially for soil-inhabiting insect pests. In this

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

Characterisation of the entomopathogenic nematode Heterorhabditis (Nematoda : Heterorhabditidae) from Ireland and Britain by molecular and cross-breeding techniques, and the occurrence of the genus in these islands [PDF]

open access: yes, 1994
Des examens de sol ont été effectués en Irlande et en Grande-Bretagne pour rechercher les nématodes du genre #Heterorhabditis$. Des échantillons des sols prélevés sur des sites sablonneux furent pourvus de larves de #Galleria mellonella$ comme appâts ...

An Entomopathogenic Nematode by Any Other Name [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Among the diversity of insect-parasitic nematodes, entomopathogenic nematodes (EPNs) are distinct, cooperating with insect-pathogenic bacteria to kill insect hosts.
