Targeting Biocontrol with the Slug-Parasitic Nematode Phasmarhabditis hermaphrodita in Slug Feeding Areas: A Model Study

Biocontrol Science and Technology, 1999
The nematode Phasmarhabditis hermaphrodita was applied to soil in an outdoor miniplot experiment to protect Chinese cabbage seedlings from damage by the field slug Deroceras reticulatum. The aim was to investigate the possibility of reducing the numbers of nematodes applied by only partially spraying soil in the area where slug control was needed ...

Re-description of the slug-parasitic nematode Alloionema appendiculatum Schneider, 1859 (Rhabditida: Alloionematidae)

Nematology, 2015
Alloionema appendiculatumis a common juvenile parasite of many terrestrial molluscs. Its third-stage juveniles (dauers) invade the foot muscle of snails and slugs and develop into fourth-stage juveniles, which then leave the host. Later they mature and reproduce in the soil. A population ofA.

Phasmarhabditis bonaquaense n. sp. (Nematoda: Rhabditidae), a new slug-parasitic nematode from the Czech Republic

Zootaxa, 2016
Phasmarhabditis bonaquaense n. sp. is described and illustrated from the body of Malacolimax tenellus, from the locality of České Švýcary near the village of Dobrá Voda, the Czech Republic. Females are characterized by a body length of 2349 (1878–2626) µm and a cupola shaped tail with a long hyaline hair-like tail tip.

Quantification of the slug parasitic nematode Phasmarhabditis hermaphrodita from soil samples using real time qPCR

International Journal for Parasitology, 2006
Phasmarhabditis hermaphrodita is a nematode parasite that infects and kills several species of slugs. The nematode is produced commercially as a biological control agent for slug pests of agriculture and horticulture. Given the difficulties of distinguishing this species from other nematode species in soil samples, very little is known about its ...

Phasmarhabditis bohemica n. sp. (Nematoda: Rhabditidae), a slug-parasitic nematode from the Czech Republic

Nematology, 2017
Phasmarhabditis bohemica n. sp. is described and illustrated from the body of Deroceras reticulatum from the village of Chelčice, the Czech Republic. Morphological and molecular data showed that the new isolate is close to other species of Phasmarhabditis, particularly P. californica and P. papillosa. Females are characterised by a body length of 2079 (

Survey of slug-parasitic nematodes in East and West Flanders, Belgium and description ofAngiostoma gandavensisn. sp. (Nematoda: Angiostomidae) from arionid slugs

Journal of Helminthology, 2019
AbstractA survey for slug-associated nematodes in five locations of East and West Flanders in Belgium revealed the presence of one new and six known slug-parasitic nematodes,Agfa flexilis(Dujardin, 1845),Alloionema appendiculatum(Schneider, 1859),Angiostoma dentiferum(Mengert, 1953),Angiostoma limacis(Dujardin, 1845),Angiostoma norvegicum(Rosset al ...

The slug parasitic nematode Phasmarhabditis hermaphrodita associates with complex and variable bacterial assemblages that do not affect its virulence

Journal of Invertebrate Pathology, 2010
Phasmarhabditis hermaphrodita is a nematode parasite of slugs that is commercially reared in monoxenic culture with the bacterium Moraxella osloensis and sold as a biological molluscicide. However, its bacterial associations when reared in vivo in slugs are unknown. We show that when reared in vivo in slugs, P.

The parasitic nematode Phasmarhabditis hermaphrodita defends its slug host from being predated or scavenged by manipulating host spatial behaviour

Behavioural Processes, 2008
Infective stages of commercially used molluscicidal rhabditide nematodes Phasmarhabditis hermaphrodita contain bacterial symbionts which kill their host by septicaemia. The nematodes feed on the multiplying bacteria and entire host tissue, develop and repeatedly reproduce. Invertebrate cadavers are rapidly (from minutes to hours) removed by scavengers.

Susceptibility and immune response of Deroceras reticulatum, Milax gagates and Limax pseudoflavus exposed to the slug parasitic nematode Phasmarhabditis hermaphrodita

Journal of Invertebrate Pathology, 2008
We exposed three slug species (Deroceras reticulatum (Müller), Milax gagates (Draparnaud) and Limax pseudoflavus L.) to the parasitic nematode Phasmarhabditis hermaphrodita Schneider. P. hermaphrodita was able to cause mortality and feeding inhibition to both D. reticulatum and M. gagates but did not negatively affect L. pseudoflavus.

Application of parasitic nematodes for slugs control in lettuce

2010
Puževi golaći jedni su od važnijih štetnika salate, kao i brojnih drugih povrtlarskih kultura. Puževi ishranom uzrokuju sniženje prinosa, ali istovremeno i onečišćenje biljaka svojim tijelima, izmetom, odloženim jajima i sluzastim tragovima, koji dovode do smanjenja kvalitete proizvoda te značajnih financijskih gubitaka.
