Dangerous liaisons: The symbiosis of entomopathogenic nematodes and bacteria

2006-07-01

Abstract excerpt

Two phylogenetically distinct groups of the entomopathogenic nematodes, Heterorhabditis and Steinernema, are vectors for enteric insect pathogenic bacteria, Photorhabdus Boemare et al., spp. and Xenorhabdus Poinar and Thomas spp., respectively. The general life-cycles of the two vector-borne diseases of insects are similar, with the infective (i.e., dauer) juvenile (IJ) stage nematode transmitting symbiotic bacter...
