Morphological and Ecological Characterization of Steinernema feltiae (Rhabditida: Steinernematidae) Rioja Strain Isolated from Bibio hortulanus (Diptera: Bibionidae) in Spain.
A new strain of Steinernema feltiae (Rhabditida: Steinernematidae) was isolated in La Rioja (Spain) from larvae of Bibio hortulanus (Diptera: Bibionidae). A comparative morphometric analysis of this…
Effects of Entomopathogens on Insect Predators and Parasitoids
Evaluation of Indigenous Entomopathogenic Nematodes as Potential Biocontrol Agents against Popillia japonica (Coleoptera: Scarabaeidae) in Northern Italy
TLDR
The natural presence of entomopathogenic nematodes (EPNs) has been investigated in the Piedmont region (Northern Italy) in areas infested by the Japanese beetle Popillia japonica, and results showed that larval mortality was higher for pre-wintering larvae than post- wintering ones.
Novelties in Pest Control by Entomopathogenic and Mollusc- Parasitic Nematodes
TLDR
This chapter summarises the current knowledge of the diversity of the nematodes and reviews the recent advances in production, storage, application techniques genetic improvement and safety of these organisms.
Efficacy of entomopathogenic nematode, Steinernema carpocapsae against the diamondback moth, Plutella xylostella (L.) in laboratory condition
TLDR
In vitro studies were carried out on the diamondback moth, Plutella xylostella larvae using an insect entomopathogenic nematode isolate, Steinernema carpocapsae obtained from the Koppert company, the Netherlands, and interaction between IJ and ET were significant.

The impact of diseases and pathogens on insect population dynamics
TLDR
The role of pathogens on the population dynamics of insects is explored and theoretical models are developed to illustrate the role of particular disease mediated processes in insect host–pathogen interactions.
