Serine Protease-mediated Host Invasion by the Parasitic Nematode Steinernema carpocapsae [PDF]
Journal of Biological Chemistry, 2010 Steinernema carpocapsae is an insect parasitic nematode used in biological control, which infects insects penetrating by mouth and anus and invading the hemocoelium through the midgut wall. Invasion has been described as a key factor in nematode virulence and suggested to be mediated by proteases.

Temperature-dependent changes in the host-seeking behaviors of parasitic nematodes [PDF]
, 2016 Olfactory plasticity occurs in individual infective juveniles (IJs), is not affected by cultivation density, and occurs in multiple strains of Steinernema carpocapsae. A. Temperature-induced changes in sensory valence occur in individual IJs.
