Evaluation of Steinernema carpocapsae survival and infectivity after cryopreservation
BioControl, 2016A cryopreservation protocol, with an optimum survival rate of 86.8 %, was developed for a strain of Steinernema carpocapsae (Weiser) ItS-CAO1 isolated in a lagoon plain in Veneto Region (northern Italy). Some laboratory bioassays were carried out against Galleria mellonella (L.) (Lepidoptera: Pyralidae) larvae to determine the infectivity and stability

Magnetic and electric fields induce directional responses in Steinernema carpocapsae
International Journal for Parasitology, 2013Entomopathogenic nematode species respond directionally to various cues including electrical stimuli. For example, in prior research Steinernema carpocapsae was shown to be attracted to an electrical current that was applied to an agar dish. Thus, we hypothesised that these nematodes may use electromagnetic reception to assist in navigating through the

The nematode Steinernema carpocapsae (All) strain was significantly more effective against peachtree borer larvae (Synanthedon exitiosa [Lepidoptera: Sesiidae]) than Steinernema riobrave (7-12) strain in field and laboratory experiments. Eighty-eight percent control of peachtree borer larvae was obtained with S.

Meteorus rubens—Steinernema carpocapsae interaction, field studies
Anzeiger für Schädlingskunde, 1999The entomogenous nematode,Steinernema carpocapsae was applied in three forms in two fields cultivated with cotton and tomato, under each cotton seedling or tomato plant: a bait like form, a suspension and in irrigation water. High concentrations of 2000 and 1000 IJS/seedling induced 100% mortality (after 5 days), while lower concentrations showed the ...

Explanations for the Low Susceptibility of Leptinotarsa decemlineata to Steinernema carpocapsae
Biological Control, 1994Abstract Leptinotarsa decemlineata is less susceptible to entompathogenic nematodes than many other insect species. The roles of host-finding ability by the nematode Steinernema carpocapsae and host nonself response (immunity) toward the nematodes were determined to partially explain this low susceptibility. An agar-based assay was used to assess

Evaluation of Control of the RWW with the Nematode Steinernema Carpocapsae, 1989
Insecticide and Acaricide Tests, 1992Abstract Experiments were conducted in the field and greenhouse at the Texas A&M University Agricultural Research and Extension Center at Beaumont. A basin (120 × 80 ft) with Beaumont clay soil was disced and rototilled in the early spring.

Moderate activity of arginine kinase was found in Steinernema carpocapsae, an entomopathogenic nematode. In the forward reaction, 4.60 and 3.12 micromol ATP/min/mg protein was produced in infectious third-stage juveniles (J3s) and adult nematodes, respectively. For the reverse reaction, 3.20 and 2.27 micromol phosphoarginine/min/mg protein was produced

Steinernema carpocapsae is an insect parasitic nematode able to parasitise and kill the host within 48 h. Secreted products (ESP) of the parasitic stage of a virulent strain contain higher amounts of proteolytic activity than a low virulence strain, suggesting proteases are involved in virulence. From the ESP we purified a protein (Sc-SP-3) with a M(r)
