Meteorus rubens—Steinernema carpocapsae interaction, field studies

Anzeiger für Schädlingskunde, 1999
The 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 ...

Osmotic Survival of the Entomopathogenic Nematode Steinernema carpocapsae

Biological Control, 2000
Abstract The effect of different osmolytes on the viability and the effect of osmotic pressure on the induction of a dormant state similar to that caused by a slow desiccation rate were evaluated in the entomopathogenic nematode Steinernema carpocapsae ‘All’. For both experiments, a high-temperature (45°C) assay (HTA) was employed.

Osmotic responses of different strains of Steinernema carpocapsae

Nematology, 2011
Abstract A solution consisting of a mixture of glycerol and fortified artificial seawater was used to induce partial anhydrobiosis at 15°C in different strains of Steinernema carpocapsae. All the strains tested were tolerant to the osmotic solution and the survival and infectivity of the nematodes were not influenced.

Magnetic and electric fields induce directional responses in Steinernema carpocapsae

International Journal for Parasitology, 2013
Entomopathogenic 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

Evaluation of Steinernema carpocapsae survival and infectivity after cryopreservation

BioControl, 2016
A 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

Susceptibility of Cockroaches (Dictyoptera: Blattellidae, Blattidae) to Infection by Steinernema carpocapsae

Journal of Economic Entomology, 1992
The susceptibility of American cockroaches, Periplaneta americana (L.); smoky brown cockroaches, P. fuliginosa (Serville); oriental cockroaches, Blatta orientalis L.; German cockroaches, Blattella germanica (L.); and brownbanded cockroaches, Supella longipalpa (F.), to Steinernema carpocapsae Weiser (All strain) was evaluated under laboratory ...

Control of overwintering filbertworm (Lepidoptera: Tortricidae) larvae with Steinernema carpocapsae.

Journal of economic entomology, 2010
Filbertworm, Cydia latiferreana (Walsingham) (Lepidoptera: Tortricidae), is a key insect pest associated with hazelnuts, Corylus avellana L. (Fagales: Betulaceae), in North America. This study investigated the feasibility of entomopathogenic nematodes as an alternative strategy for filbertworm control.

Cryopreservation of the entomogenous nematode parasite Steinernema feltiae (=Neoaplectana carpocapsae)

Cryobiology, 1990
Abstract Cryopreservation studies were conducted with the J1 juvenile and third stage infective juvenile (IJ) larval stages of the entomogenous parasitic nematode Steinernema feltiae (= Neoaplectana carpocapsae). The main parameters evaluated were (i) tolerance of the organisms to the cryoprotectants methanol, ethanediol, glycerol, and dimethyl ...
