A novel member of the let-7 microRNA family is associated with developmental transitions in filarial nematode parasites [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Background: Filarial nematodes are important pathogens in the tropics transmitted to humans via the bite of blood sucking arthropod vectors. The molecular mechanisms underpinning survival and differentiation of these parasites following transmission are ...

Dispersion of nematodes (Rhabditida) in the guts of slugs and snails

open access: yesSoil Organisms, 2018
A survey was carried out to find non-parasitic nematodes associated with slugs and snails in order to elucidate the initial phase of endophoresis and necromeny in gastropods.

Isolamento e valutazione degli effetti di microrganismi entomopatogeni nei confronti di insetti di interesse agrario, forestale e medico-veterinario [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The insecticidal potential of various entomopathogenic bacteria was evaluated by ingestion and/or injection bioassays against noxious insects including Musca domestica, Ceratitis capitata, Lymantria dispar, and Malacosoma neustria.

Slug Herbivory Induces Systemic Redox and Volatile Responses in Cabbage That Drive Chemotaxis of Slug-Parasitic Nematodes

open access: yesAgronomy
Slug herbivory is an important but poorly explored driver of plant defence and belowground multitrophic interactions. This study examined how aboveground feeding by Arion vulgaris and Deroceras reticulatum affects oxidative status, photosynthetic ...

Isolation of entomopathogenic nematodes in an apple orchard in Southern Brazil and its virulence to Anastrepha fraterculus (Diptera: Tephritidae) larvae, under laboratory conditions

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Biology
Entomopathogenic nematodes (EPNs) are a promising alternative to integrated control in many fruit pests. Few studies were made on the relationship of Anastrepha fraterculus natural population with native EPNs population and other biotic and abiotic ...

Chemotactic Responses of Slug-Parasitic Nematodes to Potato-Tuber-Emitted Volatile Organic Compounds

open access: yesAgronomy
Parasitic nematodes play a vital role in soil ecosystems, contributing to natural pest suppression. Among them, slug-parasitic species such as Phasmarhabditis papillosa (Schneider) Andrassy, Oscheius myriophilus (Poinar), and Oscheius onirici Torrini et ...

Newly Identified Nematodes from Mono Lake Exhibit Extreme Arsenic Resistance [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Extremophiles have much to reveal about the biology of resilience, yet their study is limited by sampling and culturing difficulties [1, 2, 3]. The broad success and small size of nematodes make them advantageous for tackling these problems [4, 5, 6]. We

Penetration and infectivity of entomopathogenic nematodes against Lema sp. (Chrysomelidae: Coleoptera) infesting turmeric (Curcuma longa L.) and their multiplication [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Penetration and infectivity of eight native isolates of entomopathogenic nematodes (EPNs), Heterorhabditis sp. (IISR-EPN 01); Steinernema sp. (IISR-EPN 02); S. ramanai (IISR-EPN 03); S.

Combined field inoculations of pseudomonas bacteria, arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi, and entomopathogenic nematodes and their effects on wheat performance [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
In agricultural ecosystems, pest insects, pathogens, and reduced soil fertility pose major challenges to crop productivity and are responsible for significant yield losses worldwide.

PHYLOGENETIC RELATIONSHIPS OF ENTOMOPATHOGENIC NEMATODES AND THEIR BACTERIAL SYMBIONTS FROM COASTAL AREAS IN LEBANON [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Entomopathogenic nematodes (EPNs) are parasites of soil-dwelling insects that occur in natural and agricultural soils around the world. The current study focuses on the unexplored coastal zone of Lebanon where soil samples were taken in different sites ...
