Application of entomopathogenic nematodes (EPNs) formulated as insect cadavers has
become an alternative to aqueous application for the control of agricultural pests. In this …

Bacterial symbionts are increasingly recognised as mediators of ecologically important traits
of their animal hosts, with acquisition of new traits possible by uptake of novel symbionts …

Entomopathogenic nematodes (EPNs) are obligate parasites to insects. They are natural
enemies of numerous insects, which employ mutually related bacterial symbionts to rapidly …

Entomopathogenic nematodes (EPNs) can provide effective biological control of pest. In
