Evaluation and entomopathogenicity of gut bacteria associated with dauer juveniles of Oscheius chongmingensis (Nematoda: Rhabditidae) [PDF]
MicrobiologyOpen, 2019 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.

Molecular characterizations of the entomopathogenic nematodes, Heterorhabditis bacteriophora and Oscheius myriophilus from Iraq [PDF]
Egyptian Journal of Biological Pest Control, 2019 A survey was conducted in three main regions of Iraq to isolate and identify entomopathogenic and insect parasitic nematodes. Soil samples were collected from 15 sites across 3 provinces from grassland, date palm, and citrus fields, and tested for the ...

A type III secretion system is required for Bordetella atropi invasion of host cells in vivo. [PDF]
PLoS PathogensBordetella atropi is an intracellular bacterial pathogen that infects the intestinal epithelia of the nematode host Oscheius tipulae. We previously showed that the bacteria use filamentation as a novel cell-to-cell spreading mechanism once inside the ...
