Photorhabdus khanii subsp. guanajuatensis subsp. nov., isolated from Heterorhabditis atacamensis, and Photorhabdus luminescens subsp. mexicana subsp. nov., isolated from Heterorhabditis mexicana entomopathogenic nematodes [PDF]
Two Gram-negative, rod-shaped, non-spore-forming bacteria, MEX20-17T and MEX47-22T, were isolated from the digestive system of Heterorhabditis atacamensis and Heterorhabditis mexicana entomopathogenic nematodes, respectively.

Background Biotic and abiotic factors influence survival, infectivity, development, reproduction, and activity of the entomopathogenic nematodes (EPNs). EPNs have been used to suppress the soil-inhabitant insects, which applied as a successful biological

Fatty acid composition of Heterorhabditis sp. during storage [PDF]
The fatty acid composition of three North West European isolates of Heterorhabditis sp. from different geographical origins, UK211 (England), HF85 (The Netherlands) and EU17 (Estonia) was assessed directly after harvest and, for UK211 and HF85, after 5 weeks storage in water at 20 degrees C. Lipid represented 34-43% of the dry weight of fresh nematodes.

Draft Genome Sequence and Assembly of Photorhabdus heterorhabditis Strain VMG, a Bacterial Symbiont Associated with the Entomopathogenic Nematode Heterorhabditis zealandica [PDF]
ABSTRACT Here, we report the draft genome sequence of Photorhabdus heterorhabditis strain VMG, a symbiont of the entomopathogenic nematode Heterorhabditis zealandica in South Africa. The draft genome sequence is 4,878,919 bp long and contains 4,023 protein-coding genes.

Biocontrol potential of naturally occurring entomopathogens against Maladera formosae in corn-soybean rotated systems. [PDF]
We isolated three insect‐killing nematodes from Maladera formosae infested corn–soybean rotated fields, Heterorhabditis bacteriophora, Pristionchus sp., and Steinernema carpocapsae. Results from greenhouse and field microcosm studies indicate all three nematodes can infect and kill M. formosae grubs and persist through winter.
