Morphological Mutant in the Entomopathogenic Nematode, Heterorhabditis bacteriophora
Journal of Heredity, 1993Heterorhabditis bacteriophora is an entomopathogenic nematode that has potential as a biological control agent. As a first step in the genetic analysis of this nematode, we induced and isolated a short nematode (dumpy) from the F2 progeny of an EMS mutagenized nematode. Phenotypically, the dumpy adult is 60% shorter than the wild type.

The Mediterranean fruit fly (Medfly), Ceratitis capitata Wiedemann is the most cosmopolitan and invasive among all species in the family Tephritidae. Concerns related to insecticides misuse create an opportunity for the development and use of biocontrol agents such as the entomopathogenic nematodes (EPNs).

Liquid media development for Heterorhabditis bacteriophora : lipid source and concentration
Applied Microbiology and Biotechnology, 2000Lipids are important entomopathogenic nematode nutritional components because they are energy reserves and serve as indicators of nematode quality. The composition and concentration of the media lipid component determine bacterial and nematode yields.

A laboratory study was conducted to study of compatibility of entomopathogenic nematode, Heterorhabditis bacteriophora with insecticides currently used against cutworm (Agrotis ipsilon). To evaluate the nematode survival rate, infective juveniles (IJs) H. bacteriophora were exposed to Nimbecidine and Tricel at three different concentrations for 3 h,6 h,

Diet Composition and Lipids of In Vitro-Produced Heterorhabditis bacteriophora
Biological Control, 2001Abstract Several entomopathogenic nematode species are currently under evaluation for mass production and field efficacy for biological control of insect pests. However, quality and quantity of in vitro -produced entomopathogenic nematodes vary considerably, depending on media, temperature, and production method.

A Mariner-Like Transposable Element in the Insect Parasite Nematode Heterorhabditis bacteriophora
Journal of Molecular Evolution, 1999For the first time, mariner elements were found in insect parasitic nematodes. Full-length elements were isolated from the rhabditid Heterorhabditis bacteriophora. They were 1279 bp long, flanked by two 30-bp inverted repeats, and were able to encode a putative 358-amino acid transposase.

Entomopathogenic nematodes are effective biological control agents against insect pests but their commercial application is restricted by their limited shelf life. This study applies our knowledge of the cold tolerance of nematodes to this problem and investigates further the cold tolerance mechanisms of Steinernema feltiae and Heterorhabditis ...

In Heterorhabditis bacteriophora, an insect-parasitic nematode, the third juvenile is the infective, developmentally arrested form. When it infects a suitable host, the infective juvenile recovers from developmental arrest and resumes growth and development.

Application pattern and persistence of the entomopathogenic nematode Heterorhabditis bacteriophora
Biological Control, 2003Abstract Scarab beetle larvae are widespread insect pests that can be controlled by the entomopathogenic nematode Heterorhabditis bacteriophora. The nematode is applied as an inundative biological control agent, which means that large numbers ( ≈2.5×10 9 ha −1 ) are applied uniformly to crops.

The present study investigated for the first time the influence of exposure time (24 or 48 h) of Biomphalaria glabrata (Gastropoda: Pulmonata) to Heterorhabditis bacteriophora (Rhabditida: Heterorhabditidae), strain HP88, on some physiological and reproductive parameters of the host mollusk.
