A ShK-like Domain from Steinernema carpocapsae with Bioinsecticidal Potential
Toxins, 2022 Entomopathogenic nematodes are used as biological control agents against a broad range of insect pests. We ascribed the pathogenicity of these organisms to the excretory/secretory products (ESP) released by the infective nematode. Our group characterized different virulence factors produced by Steinernema carpocapsae that underlie its success as an ...

Spodoptera frugiperda transcriptional response to infestation by Steinernema carpocapsae [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2019 Abstract Steinernema carpocapsae is an entomopathogenic nematode (EPN) used in biological control of agricultural pest insects. It enters the hemocoel of its host via the intestinal tract and releases its symbiotic bacterium Xenorhabdus nematophila .

Steinernema carpocapsae jumps with greater velocity and acceleration than previously reported
microPublication biology, 2021 Many invertebrates are capable of jumping, such as locusts, fleas, mantids, and cockroaches. Some invertebrates can jump without the use of their legs, such as click beetles and springtails (Mo et al., 2020). Nematodes, which are non-segmented roundworms, are capable of a variety of complex behaviors, though jumping is arguably the most visually ...

The influence of habitat quality on the foraging strategies of the entomopathogenic nematodes Steinernema carpocapsae and Heterorhabditis megidis [PDF]
, 2010 Entomopathogenic nematodes (EPN) are soil-transmitted parasites and their foraging strategies are believed to range from ‘ambush’ to ‘cruise’ foragers. However, research on their behaviour has not considered the natural habitat of these nematodes.

Dry-freezing Steinernema carpocapsae infective juveniles for robust preservation of stocks
microPublication biology, 2023 Cryopreservation allows strains to be stored, eliminating genetic drift and maintenance costs. Existing cryopreservation methods for the economically-important entomopathogenic nematode Steinernema carpocapsae involve multiple incubation and filtration steps to precondition the animals.

Heterorhabditis bacteriophora (Poinar) - the first member from Heterorhabditidae family in Slovenia
Acta Agriculturae Slovenica, 2009 In August 2008, we examined 95 soil samples for the occurrence of entomopathogenic nematodes in eastern part of Slovenia. 11 samples from 9 different locations were positive to entomopathogenic nematodes, but to this time only sample D54 was analysed ...
