Pathogenicity of indigenous entomopathogenic nematodes from Benin against mango fruit fly (Bactrocera dorsalis) under laboratory conditions [PDF]
, 2018 Bactrocera dorsalis fruit fly is the economically most significant tephritid pest species on Mango, Mangifera indica L., in Benin, and entomopathogenic nematodes (EPNs) represent good candidates for its control in the soil.

Phoresy of the entomopathogenic nematode Steinernema feltiae by the earthworm Eisenia fetida
Journal of Invertebrate Pathology, 2006 The free-living stage of entomopathogenic nematodes occurs in soil, and is an environmental-friendly alternative for biological control. However, their dispersal capability is limited. Earthworms improve soil characteristics, changing soil structure and influencing many edaphic organisms.

A core set of venom proteins is released by entomopathogenic nematodes in the genus Steinernema. [PDF]
, 2019 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

Entomologia 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.
