ENTOMOPATHOGENIC NEMATODES ASSOCIATION WITH SOIL- DWELLING BACTERIA: THE CASE OF STEINERNEMA FELTIAE
The symbiosis of entomopathogenic nematodes (EPNs) with bacteria in the genera Photorhabdus and Xenorhabdus is well known. However, other soil-dwelling bacteria can occasionally be isolated from EPNs collected from diseased larvae. Accordingly, through several studies, we have detected the presence of diverse bacterial species including isolates of ...

Steinernema oregonensis n. sp. (Rhabditida : Steinernematidae) from Oregon, USA [PDF]
Une nouvelle espèce du genre #Steinernema$ a été découverte près de Grant's Pass en Orégon. #Steinernema oregonensis$ n. sp. se distingue des autres espèces de #Steinernema$ par la longueur des juvéniles infestants, la forme des spicules, l'absence de ...

A core set of venom proteins is released by entomopathogenic nematodes in the genus Steinernema. [PDF]
Parasitic helminths release molecular effectors into their hosts and these effectors can directly damage host tissue and modulate host immunity. Excreted/secreted proteins (ESPs) are one category of parasite molecular effectors that are critical to their

Soil Moisture Effects on Entomopathogenic Nematodes [PDF]
The effect of soil moisture on entomopathogenic nematode virulence was examined in the laboratory. Objectives were to determine the virulence of several species and isolates of entomopathogenic nematodes at various soil moisture contents and temperatures,

Comparative genomics of Steinernema reveals deeply conserved gene regulatory networks [PDF]
Background: Parasitism is a major ecological niche for a variety of nematodes. Multiple nematode lineages have specialized as pathogens, including deadly parasites of insects that are used in biological control.
