Foliar application of entomopathogenic nematodes (Rhabditida: Steinernematidae and Heterorhabditidae) for the control of Diatraea saccharalis in greenhouse
Aplicação foliar de nematóides entomopatogênicos (Rhabditida: Steinernematidae e Heterorhabditidae) para o controle de Diatraea saccharalis em casa de vegetação

Semina: Ciências Agrárias, 2012
The sugarcane borer, Diatraea saccharalis, makes tunnels in the cane stalk, causing weight loss, as well as bud death, impairing germination. The weakened stalks are also more prone to breakage by wind, and in young plants the inner whorl of the leaves ...

Effect of propagation temperatures on temperature tolerances of entomopathogenic nematodes [PDF]

, 1998
La capacité de quatre isolats (représentant trois espèces) de Steinernematides à tolérer des températures élevées, ou en dessous de 0 C, a été déterminée après élevage à 25 et 20 C et, quand cela a été possible, à 15 et 10° C, pendant deux ans.

Mating and Sexual Communication by Steinernema carpocapsae (Nemata: Steinernematidae).

Journal of nematology, 2011
Entomopathogenic nematodes are lethal insect parasites that reproduce exclusively inside their hosts in nature. Infection decisions made by the free-living infective-stage juveniles have an impact on reproductive success, but it is likely that mating decisions are made by adults while inside their host. We investigated sexual communication between male

Side effects of immune response of Colorado potato beetle, Leptinotarsa decemlineata against the entomopathogenic nematode, Steinernema carpocapsae infection [PDF]

Invertebrate Survival Journal, 2014
Entomopathogenic nematodes (EPNs) are lethal pathogens of agricultural insect pests. Little is known about their sublethal effects on the insect hosts. The lethal effects of Steinernema carpocapsae on fourth instar larvae of Colorado potato beetle (CPB),

Pathogenicity of Steinernema carpocapsae and S. glaseri (Nematoda: Steinernematidae) to Ixodes scapularis (Acari: Ixodidae) [PDF]

, 2017
The entomopathogenic nematodes Steinernema carpocapsae (Weiser) and S. glaseri (Steiner) are pathogenic to engorged adult, blacklegged ticks, Ixodes scapularis (Say), but not to unfed females, engorged nymphs, or engorged larvae.

Responses of two entomopathogenic nematode species from the genus Steinernema to ethanol and 1-nonene

Biological Control
Entomopathogenic nematodes (EPNs) parasitize insects in the soil and are applied as environmentally friendly means for pest control in agriculture. Knowledge of how EPN infective juveniles (IJs) find their prey can be used to increase their effectiveness.

Efficacy of different entomopathogenic nematode isolates, against the peach fruit fly, Bactrocera zonata (Saund.) (Diptera: Tephritidae)

Egyptian Journal of Biological Pest Control
Background The invasive peach fruit fly (PFF), Bactrocera zonata (Saunders) (Diptera: Tephritidae), is a native of Southeast Asia. Entomopathogens like nematodes, bacteria, viruses and fungi have been shown to be effective as a biological control agent ...

Phylogenetic analysis of the genus Steinernema by morphological characters and randomly amplified polymorphic DNA fragments [PDF]

, 1996
Des caractères morphologiques et la longueur de fragments d'ADN amplifiés au hasard (RAPD) ont été utilisés pour réaliser une analyse phylogénique des nématodes entomopathogènes du genre #Steinernema$. Les résultats concernant les relations phylogéniques

Lateral Dispersal and Foraging Behavior of Entomopathogenic Nematodes in the Absence and Presence of Mobile and Non-Mobile Hosts.

PLoS ONE, 2015
Entomopathogenic nematodes have been classified into cruisers (active searchers) and ambushers (sit and wait foragers). However, little is known about their dispersal and foraging behavior at population level in soil.

Nematoden als bestrijders van trips? [PDF]

, 2010
Er is, vooral in de sierteelt, vraag naar nieuwe, betere tripsbestrijders. De laatste tijd worden insectenpathogene aaltjes naar voren geschoven als bestrijders van de californische trips. Ze worden verkocht zowel voor bodemtoepassing tegen de poppen als
