Thirty years of slug control using the parasitic nematode Phasmarhabditis hermaphrodita and beyond

open access: yesPest Management Science, Volume 79, Issue 10, Page 3408-3424, October 2023., 2023
The nematode Phasmarhabditis hermaphrodita is a parasite of slugs and snails and has been formulated into a biological control agent for use across northern Europe since 1994. Here, we review all research on P. hermaphrodita that has been carried out over the last 30 years and suggest future priorities.

Effectiveness of field‐exposed attract‐and‐kill devices against the adults of Popillia japonica (Coleoptera: Scarabaeidae): a study on duration, form and storage

open access: yesPest Management Science, Volume 79, Issue 9, Page 3262-3270, September 2023., 2023
Correlation between the decrease of effectiveness in mortality of Popillia japonica adults treated with field‐exposed LLINs and the decrease of α‐cypermethrin content in the LLINs over time. Abstract BACKGROUND The Japanese beetle Popillia japonica Newman is an insect pest native to Japan that has spread into North America, the Azores and, recently ...

Photorhabdus heterorhabditis sp. nov., a symbiont of the entomopathogenic nematode Heterorhabditis zealandica

open access: yesInternational Journal of Systematic and Evolutionary Microbiology, 2014
The bacterial symbionts SF41Tand SF783 were isolated from populations of the insect pathogenic nematodeHeterorhabditis zealandicacollected in South Africa. Both strains were closely related to strain Q614 isolated from a population ofHeterorhabditissp. collected from soil in Australia in the 1980s.

Nematodes as suppressors and facilitators of plant performance

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 238, Issue 6, Page 2305-2312, June 2023., 2023
Summary Plant–nematode interactions are mainly considered from the negative aspect with a focus on plant‐parasitic nematodes (PPNs), which is justified considering the agronomic losses caused by PPNs. Despite the fact that PPNs are outnumbered by nonparasitic free‐living nematodes (FLNs), the functional importance of FLNs, especially with regard to ...

Invasion of Popillia japonica in Lombardy, Italy: Interactions with soil entomopathogenic nematodes and native grubs

open access: yesAgricultural and Forest Entomology, Volume 24, Issue 4, Page 600-608, November 2022., 2022
Abstract The recent invasion of the Japanese beetle Popillia japonica Newman (Coleoptera: Scarabaeidae) in northern Italy offered the opportunity to explore the entomopathogenic nematodes (EPNs) associated with the soil of hay meadows. A total of 61 sites were considered for nematode sampling, and from 17 of them (27.9%) EPNs were isolated and further ...
