The effect of organic versus chemical fertilizers on insect pathogens [PDF]

, 1996
Insects such as the black cutworm are a major pest of seedling corn in Corn Belt states. Both the nematode Steinernema carpocapsae and the fungus Beauveria bassiana are potential biological control agents of this pest Because their survivability depends ...

State-space based mass event-history model I: many decision-making agents with one target

, 2009
A dynamic decision-making system that includes a mass of indistinguishable agents could manifest impressive heterogeneity. This kind of nonhomogeneity is postulated to result from macroscopic behavioral tactics employed by almost all involved agents.

Field efficacy of Imidacloprid and Steinernema carpocapsae in a chitosan formulation against the Red Palm Weevil Rhynchophorus ferrugineus (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) in Phoenix canariensis [PDF]

, 2010
BACKGROUND: The invasive red palm weevil, Rhynchophorus ferrugineus (Olivier), has become the major pest of palms in the Mediterranean Basin. Chemical control against this species is difficult because of its cryptic habits and is mainly based on the ...

Pest risk assessment of Leucinodes orbonalis for the European Union

EFSA Journal, Volume 22, Issue 3, March 2024.
Abstract Following a request from the European Commission, the EFSA Panel on Plant Health performed a quantitative risk assessment of Leucinodes orbonalis (Lepidoptera: Crambidae), the eggplant fruit and shoot borer, for the EU. The assessment focused on potential pathways for entry, climatic conditions favouring establishment, spread and impact ...

New reports on dixenic associations between the symbionts of entomopathogenic nematodes, Photorhabdus and Xenorhabdus, and non-symbiotic bacteria

Journal of Crop Protection, 2017
By conducting three different methods, we report on the isolation of five novel strains of non-symbiotic bacteria from crushed infective juveniles (IJs) of four species of entomopathogenic nematodes (EPN) including Heterorhabditis bacteriophora ...
