Background Entomopathogenic nematodes (EPNs) have more important role in biological control of economic insect pests. The effect of native EPNs on adults of the lucerne beetle, Gonioctena fornicata (Brüggemann, 1873) (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae), and the ...

Black vine weevil and other wingless weevils: are there any effective conrol methods applicable in outdoor strawberry in Nordic countries? [PDF]
The black vine weevil (Otiorhynchus sulcatus) is a common pest in Central Europe but rather new on outdoor crops in Finland. Spreading of enthomopathogenic nematodes against weevils by drip irrigation was tested at MTT during 2003-2004.

Active resistance of entomophagous rhabditid Heterorhabditis bacteriophora to insect immunity
A specific extracellular proteinase, degrading selectively the cecropin-based defence system of insects, is secreted into the larval body during parasitism of the greater wax moth by the Heterorhabditis bacteriophora/Photorhabdus luminescens complex and by phase 1 of P. luminescens.

An investigation of chemotaxis in the insect parasitic nematodeHeterorhabditis bacteriophora
We tested the chemotactic responses of dauer juvenile stages (DJs) of the insect parasitic nematodeHeterorhabditis bacteriophorato a variety of compounds that are known to be highly attractive or highly repellent toCaenorhabditis elegans. WhileH. bacteriophoraDJs respond to alcohols and some aromatic compounds as well as to host metabolites such as ...
