Since the 1980s, research into entomopathogenic nematodes (EPNs) in Latin America has
produced many remarkable discoveries. In fact, 16 out of the 117 recognized species of …

Entomopathogenic nematodes (EPNs) are a safe insect biological control agent. Key to the
implementation of EPNs as a biopesticide is their mass production in shake flasks and …

Monoxenic liquid culture is the most suitable technology for scaling up to industrial
production of entomopathogenic nematodes (EPNs); however, the variability of the yield …

Entomopathogenic nematodes have become a valuable addition to the range of biological
control agents available for insect control. An endemic nematode …

Global pesticide usage is 3.5 million tonnes at an average of 1.81 kg/ha, while Indian usage
is at 55,000 metric tonnes (2023) with an average of 0.517 kg/ha. Compared to the pesticide …

Entomopathogenic nematode production in liquid fermentation still requires improvements
to maximize efficiency, yield, and nematode quality. The objective of this study was to …

Abstract Ellsworth Dougherty (1921–1965) was a man of impressive intellectual dimensions
and interests; in a relatively short career he contributed enormously as researcher and …

Dehydrated egg yolk is usually incorporated as a powder into the liquid medium to supply
protein for entomopathogenic nematodes (EPNs) culture. This study aimed to evaluate the …

Steinernema colombiense, an entomopathogenic nematode species (EPN) was grown in
two types of orbitally shaken flasks at 130 rpm and 28° C, containing 10 or 20 mL …

Entomopathogenic nematodes are soil-dwelling biocontrol agents. EPNs need an insect
host to complete their life cycle, and they kill their host during its development. The major …
