Escherichia coli Nissle 1917 Occupies Previously Undocumented Host Niches in the Insect-Parasitic Nematode Steinernema hermaphroditum. [PDF]

Environ Microbiol Rep
This study characterizes previously undocumented host tissues in Steinernema nematodes, including putative coelomocytes, intestinal compartments, and inter‐cuticular spaces colonized by Escherichia coli Nissle 1917. Our findings reveal niche‐specific microbial interactions distinct from those with native symbionts, establishing a platform for ...

Glucosinolate hydrolysis products suppress entomopathogenic nematodes in vitro but do not protect sequestering flea beetle larvae in vivo. [PDF]

Pest Manag Sci
The flea beetle's glucosinolate‐based chemical defense fails to protect larvae from nematode infection. However, the defense inhibits the nematode's symbiotic bacteria, thereby potentially impairing nematode reproduction and biocontrol success. Abstract BACKGROUND The efficacy of entomopathogenic nematodes (EPNs) in the biological control of insect ...

How effective are entomopathogenic nematodes for vine weevil (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) biological control? A meta-analysis. [PDF]

Pest Manag Sci
Entomopathogenic nematodes provide reliable biological control of vine weevil larvae, reducing populations by 63% on average. All five tested species are effective, with temperature (18–30 °C) being the strongest predictor of success. Abstract BACKGROUND Vine weevil (Otiorhynchus sulcatus) is a globally important pest of soft fruit and ornamental crops

A draft genome of Steinernema diaprepesi

Journal of Nematology, 2020
Abstract Entomopathogenic nematodes within the genus Steinernema are used as biological control agents against significant agricultural pests. Steinernema diaprepesi is native to Florida and very effective in controlling citrus root ...

Entomopathogenic nematode-associated microbiota: from monoxenic paradigm to pathobiome

Microbiome, 2020
Background The holistic view of bacterial symbiosis, incorporating both host and microbial environment, constitutes a major conceptual shift in studies deciphering host-microbe interactions. Interactions between Steinernema entomopathogenic nematodes and

Conspecific pheromone extracts enhance entomopathogenic infectivity

Journal of Nematology, 2019
Entomopathogenic nematodes (EPNs) provide economic control of various insect pests. However, field efficacy can be inconsistent. The ability of a nematode to find and infect (invade) a host insect is critical to successful pathogenesis.

Formulation of entomopathogenic nematodes for crop pest control - a review

Plant Protection Science, 2017
The different materials and methods used to develop biopesticides with entomopathogenic nematodes (EPNs) still limit the quality of the final product, reducing field efficacy and complicating application strategies.
