An isolate of the nematophagous fungusMonacrosporium thaumasiumfor the control of cattle trichostrongyles in south-eastern Brazil

Journal of Helminthology, 2014
AbstractA mycelial formulation in sodium alginate pellets of the nematophagous fungusMonacrosporium thaumasium(isolate NF34A) was assessed in the biological control of beef cattle trichostrongyles in tropical Brazil. Two groups of ten male Nellore calves aged 6 months, a fungus-treated group and a control group, were fed on a pasture ofBrachiaria ...

Isolation, identification and characterisation of the nematophagous fungus Arthrobotrys thaumasia (Monacrosporium thaumasium) from China

Biocontrol Science and Technology, 2017
ABSTRACTThe objective of this study is to select a native isolate of Arthrobotrys thaumasia (Monacrosporium thaumasium), a nematophagous fungus that shows potential for use in biocontrol programmes for ruminants. First, we looked for native isolates of A. thaumasia and characterised them using light microscopy and molecular markers. Then, we determined

In Vitro, in Vivo, and Interaction Studies of Nematophagous FungusArthrobotrys thaumasia(Monacrosporium thaumasium) with the Larvae of Trichostrongylides of Sheep

Journal of Parasitology, 2017
It is important to isolate potential candidates from the local isolates of nematophagous fungi and to investigate interaction between the fungal strains and gastrointestinal nematodes for the biological control of parasitic nematodes in livestock.

Evaluation of the effectiveness of Duddingtonia flagrans and Monacrosporium thaumasium in the biological control of gastrointestinal nematodes in female bovines bred in the semiarid region

Veterinary Research Communications, 2014
Brazil has a herd of 212 million cattle and 171 million hectares of pastures that produce approximately 96 % of Brazilian beef. The Brazilian production system enables animal infection by endoparasites, which are considered one of the main obstacles for the development of this industry and are responsible for considerable economic losses.

Influence of different storage methods on the predatory capacity of the fungi Arthrobotrys robusta and Monacrosporium thaumasium after passage through the bovine gastrointestinal tract

World Journal of Microbiology and Biotechnology, 2003
The biological control of helminth parasites of bovines by nematophagous fungi is an alternative to the use of drugs with the principal objective of reducing the source of infection available on pastureland. The maintenance of predatory activity of the fungal isolates is one of the basic prerequisites to ensure the success of this form of control.
