| Abstract/Contents: | "Biological pest control using entomopathogenic nematodes has been thought to be ecologically safe and risk-free. However, there is little information on impact of these biological control agents on non-target soil organisms, especially the soil nematodes. We evaluated the response of nematode communities in turfgrass ecosystems to inundatory application of native (Heterorhabditis bacteriophora strains HP88 and GPS11) and exotic (H. indica) species of entomopathogenic nematodes in comparison to application of a chemical insecticide, Trichlorfon (Dylox 80). Application of both native and exotic species of entomopathogenic nematodes resulted in a decrease in the population of plant-parasitic nematodes but the population of free-living nematodes was unaffected. In contrast, the application of chemical insecticide significantly decreased the population of both plant-parasitic nematodes and free-living nematodes with greater reduction in the population of free-living nematodes. These results show the beneficial (non-target) effect of the application of entomopathogenic nematodes in turfgrass. The possible reasons for the differential response of soil nematode communities to application of entomopathogenic nematodes (native and exotic species) and chemical insecticides are discussed." |
