Abstract/Contents: | "Virulence of entomopathogenic nematodes, Heterorhabditis bacteriophora HP88 strain, H. bacteriophora GPS11 strain, H. indica, H. marelatus, H. megidis, and H. zealandica against four white grub species was evaluated in sand-based bioassays. The nematode species/strains were ranked based on the LD50 (lethal dose to 50% mortality) from lowest (most virulent) to the highest against each grub species. Against the Japanese beetle, Popillia japonica, the nematode species ranked as follows: H. zealandica <H. bacteriophora GPS11 <H. megidis <H. marelatus <H.bacteriophora HP88 <H.indica. Against the northern masked chafer, Cyclocephala borealis, the species ranked as H. zealandica <H. megidis <H. bacteriophora GPS11 <H. bacteriophora HP88. Against the oriental beetle, Exomala orientalis, the rankings were: H. bacteriophora GPS11 <H. zealandica <H. megidis <H. bacteriophora HP88. The European chafer, Rhizotrogus majalis was least susceptible to entomopathogenic nematodes with H. megidis and H. zealandica producing only 25 and 15% mortality, respectively. The reasons for differences in the virulence of nematode strains to different grub species are being explored." |
