Abstract/Contents: | "The vertical distribution of natural populations of Steinernema carpocapsae, an ambush forager, and Heterorhabditis bacteriophora, a cruise forager, was assessed by baiting 1-cm sections of soil cores taken from turfgrass with Galleria mellonella. Heterorhabditis bacteriophora was recovered throughout the top 8 cm and most S. carpocapsae were recovered from the top 2 cm. Distribution of S. carpocapsae changed over the course of the day, but distribution of H. bacteriophora did not change. More S. carpocapsae were obtained during the evening, night, and early morning when ultraviolet light levels were low and relative humidity was high. Differences in distribution between species probably result from differences in foraging strategy. Steinernema carpocapsae ambushes mobile insects by nictating on surfaces, therefore, more nematodes were recovered near the soil surface during periods of favorable environmental conditions. Because H. bacteriophora uses a cruise search strategy and infects Popillia japonica feeding on grass roots, this nematode was recovered throughout the soil profile." |
