Dispersal Behaviour and Transmission Strategies of the Entomopathogenic Nematodes Heterorhabditis and Steinernema

摘要: Entomopathogenic nematodes of the Heterorhabditidae and Steinernematidae appear to be capable long-distance dispersal local migration. Their transmission strategies include both highly active seek-and-destroy behaviours ambusher strategies, they may sensitive sex-related factors in their own populations. host-finding abilities are poorly understood, despite fact that these fundamental success as biocontrol agents soil. Like vast numbers exotic hymenopterans other natural enemies have been released for biological control over past century, used ecologically competent wild-type form. On hand, because applied inundatively, tailored, by breeding or transformation, intended purpose ecological incompetence, improving efficacy safety.
