Host-Specific Activation of Entomopathogenic Nematode Infective Juveniles. [PDF]
, 2018 Entomopathogenic nematodes (EPNs) are potent insect parasites and have been used for pest control in agriculture. Despite the complexity of the EPN infection process, hosts are typically killed within 5 days of initial infection.

Host seeking parasitic nematodes use specific odors to assess host resources. [PDF]
, 2017 Entomopathogenic nematodes (EPNs) are insect parasites used as biological control agents. Free-living infective juveniles (IJs) of EPNs employ host-seeking behaviors to locate suitable hosts for infection.

Egyptian Academic Journal of Biological Sciences. C, Physiology and Molecular Biology, 2014 Article History In the present study, the infectivity of the three entomopathegnic nematodes, Steinernema feltiae, Steinernema riobrave and Heterorhabditis bacteriophora, on the cotton leafworm, Spodoptera littoralis was studied. Moreover, the effect of these pathogens on certain biochemical and physiological aspects of the host was also studied.
