Molecular Ecology, Volume 31, Issue 8, Page 2327-2347, April 2022., 2022 Abstract The nematode Caenorhabditis elegans is among the most widely studied organisms, but relatively little is known about its natural ecology. Genetic diversity is low across much of the globe but high in the Hawaiian Islands and across the Pacific Rim. To characterize the niche and genetic diversity of C.

Koedoe: African Protected Area Conservation and Science, 2021 Entomopathogenic nematodes (EPNs) are microscopic roundworms that are found in soil worldwide. They deliver an important ecosystem service through preventing natural flares in insect reproduction by means of utilising the soil stages of insects as a food

A Large Collection of Novel Nematode-Infecting Microsporidia and Their Diverse Interactions with Caenorhabditis elegans and Other Related Nematodes. [PDF]
PLoS Pathogens, 2016 Microsporidia are fungi-related intracellular pathogens that may infect virtually all animals, but are poorly understood. The nematode Caenorhabditis elegans has recently become a model host for studying microsporidia through the identification of its ...

, 2023 Abstract Purpose Oscheius tipulae has attracted attention of researchers due to its entomopathogenic character besides serving as a good model for studying development, behaviour, and host-parasite interactions. The main aim of the study is to describe a new isolate O. tipulae first time from India. The study also resolved the exact status of

An Entomopathogenic Nematode by Any Other Name [PDF]
, 2012 Among the diversity of insect-parasitic nematodes, entomopathogenic nematodes (EPNs) are distinct, cooperating with insect-pathogenic bacteria to kill insect hosts.

WormBook, 2006 Oscheius tipulae is a common soil nematode of the same family as C. elegans (Rhabditidae), which presents the same hermaphroditic mode of reproduction and is easily cultured in the same conditions. Oscheius tipulae has been used as a developmental genetic model system to study vulva formation. Compared to C.

Reproductive efficiency of entomopathogenic nematodes as scavengers. Are they able to fight for insect’s cadavers? [PDF]
, 2017 Entomopathogenic nematodes (EPNs) and their bacterial partners are well-studied insect pathogens, and their persistence in soils is one of the key parameters for successful use as biological control agents in agroecosystems.

Caenorhabditis nomenclature [PDF]
, 2018 Genetic nomenclature allows the genetic features of an organism to be structured and described in a uniform and systematicway. Genetic features, including genes, variations (both natural and induced), and gene products, are assigned descriptorsthat ...
