BIOLOGICAL CONTROLÐMICROBIALS Susceptibility of the Lesser Peachtree Borer (Lepidoptera: Sesiidae) to Entomopathogenic Nematodes Under Laboratory Conditions
The lesser peachtreeborer, Synanthedonpictipes (Grote andRobinson), is an important pest of Prunus spp.We determined the susceptibility of S. pictipes to six entomopathogenic nematode species:Heterorhabditis bacteriophoraPoinar,H. indicaPoinar, Karunakar andDavid,H.marelatusLiu and Berry, Steinernema carpocapsae (Weiser), S. feltiae (Filipjev), and S. riobrave Cabanillas, Poinar and Raulston. N...
متن کاملA novel approach to biological control with entomopathogenic nematodes: Prophylactic control of the peachtree borer, Synanthedon exitiosa
Generally, microbial control agents such as entomopathogenic nematodes are applied in a curative manner for achieving pest suppression; prophylactic applications are rare. In this study, we determined the ability of two Steinernema carpocapsae strains (All and Hybrid) to prophylactically protect peach trees from damage caused by the peachtree borer, Synanthedon exitiosa, which is a major pest o...

Karimipour Fard H. and Saeidi K. 2019. Biopesticides from entomopathogenic nematodes Plant Pathology Science 8(1): 60-73. DOI: 10.2982/PPS.8.1.60. In the recant decade, biopesticides with entomopathogenic nematodes (EPNs) have been developed with using different methods and materials. But the production of such biopesticides has always accompanied by some limitations such as low quality o...
متن کاملCONTROL OF INSECT PESTS WITH ENTOMOPATHOGENIC NEMATODES I. Control of Weevils with Entomopathogenic Nematodes
Entomopathogenic nematodes in the genus Steinernema and Heterorhabditis have been successfully commercialized as biological control agents for a variety of curculionid species. Nematode-based products have been introduced for: 1) root weevils, Otiorhynchus spp. 2) billbugs, Sphenophorus spp. 3) the apopka weevil, Diaprepes abbreviatus, and 4) the citrus root weevil, Pachnaeus litus. Several oth...
متن کاملEntomopathogenic nematodes
What are you focusing on at the moment? I am still carrying on with my research into the molecular mechanisms of memory, currently focusing on the link between CaMKII and AMPA receptors during memory consolidation. But two years ago, funded by the BBSRC, we embarked on an exciting new project, investigating the link between decision-making and learning in Lymnaea. This project uses much less mo...
