Bacterial Symbionts of Steinernema scapterisci
Journal of Invertebrate Pathology, 1993 Abstract We isolated bacteria from Steinernema scapterisci cultured in the laboratory either in vivo or in vitro and collected from two field locations. The bacteria were identified by gas-liquid chromatography of their fatty acid methyl esters using the MIDI Microbial Identification System. The bacteria clustered into three groups. All but one
