Phylogenetic Analysis of Entomoparasitic Nematodes, Potential Control Agents of Flea Populations in Natural Foci of Plague [PDF]

open access: yesBioMed Research International, Volume 2014, Issue 1, 2014., 2014
Entomoparasitic nematodes are natural control agents for many insect pests, including fleas that transmit Yersinia pestis, a causative agent of plague, in the natural foci of this extremely dangerous zoonosis. We examined the flea samples from the Volga‐Ural natural focus of plague for their infestation with nematodes.

Characteristics of Entomoparasitic Nematodes of Small Rodent Fleas

open access: yesProblems of Particularly Dangerous Infections, 2016
Entomoparasitic nematodes are the natural regulators of numbers of fleas – plague vectors in natural plague foci. They have an impact on the intensity of epizootic process, progressing in these foci.Objective of the study is to examine entomoparasitic nematodes from fleas of the souslik and vole, collected in the territory of Povolzhsky Region ...

The Infestation of Fleas of the Long-Tailed Souslik with Entomoparasitic Nematodes in Tuva Mountain Natural Plague Focus

open access: yesProblems of Particularly Dangerous Infections, 2023
Entomoparasitic nematodes are supposed to be a link between parts of Yersinia pestis population in the environment and the flea vector. The aim of the study was to assess the prevalence and intensity of infestation in the fleas of the long-tailed souslik with entomoparasitic nematodes on the territory of Mongun-Taiginsky station in the Tuva natural ...

Morphological and molecular characterisation of the entomoparasitic nematode Hammerschmidtiella diesingi (Nematoda, Oxyurida, Thelastomatidae)

open access: yesActa Parasitologica, 2012
AbstractA population of Hammerschmidtiella diesingi was detected in specimens of Periplaneta americana collected in Córdoba city (Argentina) was studied. Nematodes were characterized based on morphological, morphometric and genetic (D2–D3 expansion segment) analyses.

Heterorhabditis sp., during storage [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Summary -Performance, defined as migration rates, efficacy and persistence of ten batches of the insect parasitic nematode, Heterorhabditis sp. HFr86, stored for different periods of time in a cold-room at 4-5 "C, was described by linear regression ...

Cuticular surface lipids are responsible for disguise properties of an entomoparasite against host cellular responses

open access: yes, 2008
Entomopathogenic nematodes are widely used as alternatives to chemicals for thebiological control of insects. These endoparasites are symbiotically associated with bacteria that are lethal for the host; however, parasites need to overcome the host ...

Down-regulation of antibacterial peptide synthesis in an insect model induced by the body-surface of an entomoparasite (Steinernema feltiae)

open access: yes, 2006
This study focuses on the interaction between an entomopathogenic nematode and an insect model to further investigate the role of parasite body-surface and its compounds (particularly epicuticular lipids) in the immunosuppression of host defences.

Susceptibility of neotropical mosquito larvae (Diptera: Culicidae) and non-target aquatic organisms to the entomoparasitic nematode Strelkovimermis spiculatus Poinar & Camino, 1986 (Nematoda: Mermithidae)

open access: yesNematology, 2004
Abstract Fourteen species of mosquito and several species of non-target aquatic organisms were tested for susceptibility to the neotropical mermithid nematode, Strelkovimermis spiculatus . All species of Aedes, Anopheles, Culex, Isostomyia and Ochlerotatus, plus one of the two Psorophora species exposed to S ...
