Nematophagous fungi: Metarhizium anisopliae [PDF]
International Journal of Environment, Agriculture and Biotechnology, 2018 Plant-parasitic nematodes are major pests affecting many economically important crop productions throughout the world. Some chemicals are widely used against the phytonematodes. Because of hazardous effects of these compounds on human beings, animals and on the environment, there is a need to develop other control strategies.

Predatory activity and nematocidal compounds released into liquid culture filtrates as attack strategies of a Mexican strain of Arthrobotrys oligospora against Haemonchus contortus infective larvae. [PDF]
PLoS ONENematophagous fungi offer a sustainable alternative for controlling nematode infections in small ruminants. The aims were to isolate and characterize both morphological and molecular nematophagous fungi from soil, to assess their predatory activity and ...

The living strategy of nematophagous fungi
Mycoscience, 2009 The infection structures, trophism, and ecological character of nematophagous fungi are reviewed in this article on the basis of data extracted from the literature and the most recent experiments conducted in this area. Traditionally, nematophagous fungi are classified into four groups according to their modes of attacking nematodes: nematode-trapping ...

Nematophagous Fungi Occurrence: Prediction Using Bioclimatic Variables
Microbiology ResearchThis study aimed to identify bioclimatic variables that favour the occurrence of three fungal species of the genus Arthrobotrys. For this purpose, 122 samples were collected from agricultural soils, 41 of which were positive for nematophagous fungi.
