The ecology of nematode‐trapping fungi in the soil

Annals of Applied Biology, 1962
SUMMARYThe decomposition of sucrose in non‐sterile soil stimulates an increase in both the population of free‐living nematodes and the activity of indigenous nematode‐trapping fungi. After sucrose decomposition reaches a certain stage the fungi cease to trap the nematodes still present in the soil.

PCR Primers with Enhanced Specificity for Nematode-Trapping Fungi (Orbiliales)

Microbial Ecology, 2008
Nematode-trapping fungi, a monophyletic lineage within the Orbiliales (Ascomycota), use specialized structures to capture and consume nematodes in soil, leaf litter, and other substrates. These fungi have been studied both because of their unique predatory life history and because they are potential control agents of important plant- and animal ...

The Activity of Nematode-Trapping Fungi Following Their Encapsulation in Alginate

Nematologica, 1995
Granular formulations of Dactylella candida and Arthrobotrys dactyloides were prepared by encapsulating different quantities of fungal biomass in alginate, or by subjecting encapsulated biomass to further fermentation. Results of experiments with these formulations showed that the presence of nutrients and the quality and quantity of biomass in ...

Endoparasitic nematode-trapping fungi of Mason State Forest

Mycopathologia, 1973
An initial survey involving the endoparasitic namatode-trapping fungi of Mason State Forest in Illinois was conducted from 15 May to 26 July 1971. Three endoparasitic forms were isolated from the soil samples collected; one non-endoparasitic form was also isolated. Soil pH's and soil nutrient levels were determined for the investigation period.

AN ULTRASTRUCTURAL EXAMINATION OF NEMATODE PENETRATION BY NEMATODE-TRAPPING FUNGI

Canadian Journal of Plant Science, 1981
Chemical dissolution of the cuticle is the means by which species of Arthrobotrys, Dactylaria and Monacrosporium penetrate their captured nematodes. The nematodes do not show any physiological response to this penetration action. The three cells of the constricting rings of Arthrobotrys dactyloides Drech.

Taxonomy of Nematode-Trapping Fungi from Orbiliaceae, Ascomycota

2014
Nematode-trapping fungi of Orbiliaceae include those filamentous species forming trapping devices to prey on juveniles of nematodes. In this chapter, the taxonomic history of predatory orbiliaceous fungi is reviewed and the system of using trapping devices as the primary morphological criterion for generic delimitation is advocated.

The predaceous activity of nematode‐trapping fungi added to soil

Annals of Applied Biology, 1963
SUMMARYPredaceous activity of different species of nematode‐trapping fungi introduced into non‐sterile soil varies in both intensity and duration. In some cases free‐living nematode populations increase after the addition of mycelium of these fungi to the soil and in other cases decrease.Evidence suggests that fungi forming the constricting ring type ...
