Studies on the entomopathogenicity and bacterial associates of the nematode Oscheius carolinensis

BIOLOGICAL CONTROL, 59(2), 123–129.

By: A. Torres-Barragan n, A. Suazo n, W. Buhler n & Y. Cardoza n

author keywords: Entomopathogen; Symbiosis; Serratia; Providencia; Biocontrol; Insect pest; Nematode; Oscheius
topics (OpenAlex): Entomopathogenic Microorganisms in Pest Control; Insect Pest Control Strategies; Insect Resistance and Genetics
TL;DR: It would appear that O. carolinensis association with its bacteria allows the nematode a dual life: style as an entomopathogen when associated with S. macescens, and to an extent with P. rettgeri, and as a free-living entity whenassociated with all others. (via Semantic Scholar)

Oscheius carolinensis n. sp (Nematoda: Rhabditidae), a potential entomopathogenic nematode from vermicompost

NEMATOLOGY, 12, 121–135.

By: W. Ye *, A. Torres-Barragan n & Y. Cardoza n

author keywords: description; Heterorhabditidoides n. syn.; Insectivorus-group; molecular; morphology; Oscheius chongmingensis n. comb.; phylogeny; SEM; taxonomy
topics (OpenAlex): Entomopathogenic Microorganisms in Pest Control; Nematode management and characterization studies; Insect Resistance and Genetics
TL;DR: Preliminary tests revealed that this nematode is capable of infecting at least two other insect species under laboratory conditions and therefore has potential as a biological control agent. (via Semantic Scholar)
