Augmentation Biological Control Using the Entomopathogenic Nematode Steinernema Feltiae against the South American Leafminer Liriomyza Huidobrensis
Routine measures used to control the larval stages of non-statutory leafminer species in the United Kingdom rely largely on either the use of the braconid parasitoid Dacnusa sibirica Telenga and the eulophid wasp Diglyphus isaea Walker as, for example, in tomato crops, or on chemical insecticides for control in leafy salad and ornamental plants (Garthwaite and Thomas, 2001). The availability of...
متن کاملGenetic Variability among Strains of the Entomopathogenic Nematode Steinernema feltiae.
A systematic program of genetic improvement was initiated by assessing the phenotypic variation of Steinernema feltiae strains for two traits assumed to limit efficacy: ultraviolet tolerance and host-finding ability. All of the strains assayed showed both low ultraviolet tolerance and poor host-finding ability, indicating that the likelihood of improving these traits through more extensive popu...
متن کاملSteinernema tophus sp. n. (Nematoda: Steinernematidae), a new entomopathogenic nematode from South Africa.
A new entomopathogenic nematode, Steinernema tophus n. sp. is described from South Africa. Morphological, molecular (ribosomal gene sequence data) together with cross-hybridization studies were used for diagnostics and identification purposes. Both molecular and morphological data indicate the new species belongs to the 'glaseri-group' of Steinernema spp. Key morphological diagnostic traits for...
متن کاملInfection of the Entomopathogenic Nematode, Steinernema carpocapsae, as Affected by the Presence of Steinernema glaseri.
The infection behavior of Steinernema carpocapsae infective juveniles (IJ) was investigated in the presence and absence of S. glaseri. Mixed inoculation of S. carpocapsae with S. glaseri IJ significantly raised the nictation rates of S. carpocapsae IJ. Significantly more S. carpocapsae IJ migrated to the host insect in the mixed inoculation with S. glaseri IJ on agar plates. More S. carpocapsae...
متن کاملNon-symbiotic association of Citrobacter freundii and Staphylococcus succinus with the entomopathogenic nematode Steinernema feltiae
نماتودهای خاکزی متعلق به خانواده Steinernematidae (Nematoda: Rhabditida) پارازیت های اجباری و کشنده حشرات بوده که معمولا تحت عنوان نماتودهای بیمارگر حشرات (Entomopathogenic nematodes) EPNs، از آنها نام برده می شود. این گروه از نماتودها به طور طبیعی با باکتری های جنس Xenorhabdus رابطه همزیستی داشته و نماتود مرحله سوم آلوده کننده یا Infective Juvenile، این باکتری ها را در یک وزیکول اختصاصی در ر...
