Abstract/Contents:"In laboratory studies, infective juveniles of Steinernema feltiae Filipjev (=Neoaplectana carpocapsai Weiser) (All Strain) and Heterorhabiditis heliothidis (Khan, Brooks & Hirschmann) were tested for their ability to control third-instar European chafer (EC), Rhizotrogus magalis (Razoumowsky), in soil at rates from 19.4-310.0 nematodes per cm2 of soil surface. H. heliothidis provided better control of EC larvae than S. feltiae over the range of rates tested (19.4 per cm2). In a field test in turf against a mixed population of Japanese beetle, Popillia japonica Newman, and EC larvae, H. heliothidis (310 per cm2) provided >60% control (47 d after treatment), which was equivalent to the control achieved with the labeled rates of chlorpyrifos, trichlorfon, and isofenphos against this combination of white grubs."
