Survival and Infectivity of Entomopathogenic Nematodes Formulated in Sodium Alginate Beads


Zacytuj

Survival over time of entomopathogenic nematodes (EPNs) formulated in sodium alginate beads (ABs) in relation to the pre-conditioning (Prec) of IJs or ABs coating (C) or both (Prec-C), stored at 23 ± 3°C. Steinernema glaseri (Sg), Steinernema carpocapsae (Sc), and Heterorhabditis bacteriophora (Hb).

Results of the statistical analysis over time of infectivity (IN) against Galleria mellonella by EPNs from sodium ABs, in relation to the pre-conditioning (Prec) of IJs or ABs coating (C) or both (Prec-C). Steinernema glaseri (Sg), Steinernema carpocapsae (Sc), and Heterorhabditis bacteriophora (Hb).
