Biocontrol potential of naturally occurring entomopathogens against Maladera formosae in corn–soybean rotated systems

open access: yesPest Management Science, Volume 81, Issue 8, Page 4894-4903, August 2025.
We isolated three insect‐killing nematodes from Maladera formosae infested corn–soybean rotated fields, Heterorhabditis bacteriophora, Pristionchus sp., and Steinernema carpocapsae. Results from greenhouse and field microcosm studies indicate all three nematodes can infect and kill M. formosae grubs and persist through winter.

Efficacy of entomopathogenic nematodes against the frit fly Oscinella frit (L.) (Diptera: Chloropidae) on spring wheat

open access: yesJournal für Kulturpflanzen, 2013
The efficiency of three species of entomopathogenic nematodes (EPNs) (Steinernema carpocapsae, S. feltiae and Heterorhabditis bacteriophora) and one pyrethroid (lambda-cyhalothrin) were evaluated to control frit fly, Oscinella frit (L.) in the laboratory

Reception of preparation of the entomopathogenic nematodes and the estimation of their efficiency

open access: yesRUDN Journal of Agronomy and Animal Industries, 2010
Results about invasion activity of 3 kinds entomopathogenic nematodes from family Steinernema (S. feltiae, S. carpocapsae, S. glaseri ) concerning 2 pest insects of a cotton (cotton scoops Spodoptera littoralis and a cotton bug - Pectinophora gossypiella)

Contribution of awns and hairy glumes in spring wheat to resistance against wheat midge, Sitodiplosis mosellana

open access: yesEntomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, Volume 173, Issue 7, Page 781-793, July 2025.
Wheat morphological traits had no consistent impact on Sitodiplosis mosellana oviposition. Differences in the number of eggs among doubled haploid wheat lines were not associated with the presence (A+) or absence (A−) of awns, or the presence (H+) or absence (H−) of hairs in controlled laboratory experiments and field trials.

ENTOMOPATHOGENIC NEMATODES ASSOCIATION WITH SOIL- DWELLING BACTERIA: THE CASE OF STEINERNEMA FELTIAE

open access: yesRedia
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 ...

Comparative effects of entomopathogenic fungi and nematodes and bacterial supernatants against rice white tip nematode

open access: yesEgyptian Journal of Biological Pest Control, 2018
The rice white tip nematode, Aphelenchoides besseyi, is the primarily important seed-borne pest of rice and was first recorded in Turkey in 1995. These biological agents, such as an entomopathogenic fungus (EPF), entomopathogenic nematodes (EPN), and ...

Steinernema feltiae Intraspecific Variability: Infection Dynamics and Sex-Ratio. [PDF]

open access: yesJ Nematol, 2014
Entomopathogenic nematodes (EPNs) from the Heterorhabditidae and Steinernematidae families are well-known biocontrol agents against numerous insect pests. The infective juveniles (IJs) are naturally occurring in the soil and their success in locating and penetrating the host will be affected by extrinsic/intrinsic factors that modulate their foraging ...

Effect of Pest Control Strategies on Arthropod Pests of Apple in Europe: A Meta‐Analysis

open access: yesJournal of Applied Entomology, Volume 149, Issue 6, Page 957-987, July 2025.
ABSTRACT Apple (Malus domestica Borkh.) is a major fruit crop in Europe. More than 200 phytophagous arthropod species thrive in European apple orchards, several of which are economically important pests. Due to the pest pressure on apple production, consumer demand for residue‐free products and current policies to make food production in the European ...

Insect immunity in the Anthropocene

open access: yesBiological Reviews, Volume 100, Issue 2, Page 698-723, April 2025.
ABSTRACT Anthropogenic activities result in global change, including climate change, landscape degradation and pollution, that can alter insect physiology and immune defences. These changes may have contributed to global insect decline and the dynamics of insect‐transmitted diseases.
