Evaluation and entomopathogenicity of gut bacteria associated with dauer juveniles of Oscheius chongmingensis (Nematoda: Rhabditidae) [PDF]
The nematodes of genus Oscheius are insect parasites with a potential role as biological control agents. The composition of gut microbiota and its potential assistant role in the complex pathogenic mechanism of nematodes have been poorly illustrated.

The nematode Oscheius tipulae as a genetic model for programmed DNA elimination [PDF]
Programmed DNA elimination (PDE) is a notable exception to the paradigm of genome integrity. In metazoa, PDE often occurs coincident with germline to somatic cell differentiation. During PDE, portions of genomic DNA are lost, resulting in reduced somatic genomes.

Potential of Oscheius tipulae nematodes as biological control agents against Ceratitis capitata. [PDF]
A survey to collect soil nematodes with potential to control Ceratitis capitata flies was carried out in different locations in Tunisia. Several nematode isolates were recovered, laboratory colonies were established, and their taxonomic identities were ...

Description of Oscheius indicus n. sp. (Rhabditidae: Nematoda) from India [PDF]
A new amphimictic species Oscheius indicus n. sp. is described and illustrated with morphological and molecular data. The species is characterized by a medium-sized and slender body (female: L = 1.1 to 1.5 mm; a = 16.8 to 20.6; b = 5.7 to 7.1; c = 7.5 to

Ultraconserved Elements and Machine Learning Classifiers Enable Robust Phylogenetics and Taxonomy in Model and Non-Model Nematodes. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Nematodes are among the most diverse animals, yet only around 28,000 of an estimated one million species have been morphologically described. Their small size, morphological simplicity, and cryptic diversity complicate phylogenetic analyses. Traditional morphological and single‐locus molecular approaches often lack resolution for both recent ...

Evaluation of two free-living, and one entomopathogenic nematode species (Rhabditida) for controlling Bactrocera zonata (Diptera: Tephritidae) in Iraq [PDF]
Fruit flies (Diptera: Tephritidae) are among the most serious agricultural pests globally, causing significant economic losses in fruit production and posing major quarantine concerns for many countries. Bactrocera zonata, one of the most harmful species

Efficacy of entomopathogenic nematodes present in Việt Nam against brown marmorated stink bug (Halyomorpha halys) under laboratory conditions [PDF]
The brown marmorated stink bug (Halyomorpha halys), a native of Asia, has become an invasive pest in North America and Europe. Given the severity of H. halys and the need for better and environmentally-friendly control methods for this pest, we evaluated

Review of the Potential Use of Oscheius Nematodes in Biological Control
Nematodes in the genus Oscheius (Rhabditidae) have traditionally been regarded as free-living bacteriophagous or necromenic associates of insects. Over the past two decades, however, multiple Oscheius species and isolates have been shown to express ...
