Rapid Technique for Detection of Entomophagous Nematodes

A technique is described that allows rapid detection of the presence of infesting larvae of entomophagous nematodes in soil. This technique is the result of the conjugation of classical procedures in the extraction of nematodes from soil and the production of entomophages in the laboratory. The auxi...

description A technique is described that allows rapid detection of the presence of infesting larvae of entomophagous nematodes in soil. This technique is the result of the conjugation of classical procedures in the extraction of nematodes from soil and the production of entomophages in the laboratory. The auxiliary host used is G. mellonelia. The totality of the results are obtained on the fourth day after the beginning of the experiment, having on the second day more than 50% of the information. The described technique is compared with that devised by Bedding and Akhurst using soil artificially infested with N. carpocapsae in known concentrations.

Se describe una técnica que permite detectar rápidamente la presencia de larvas infestantes de nematodos entomófagos en suelo. Esta técnica es el resultado de la conjugación de los procedimientos clásicos en la extracción de nematodos del suelo y de la producción de entomófagos en el laboratorio. El huésped, auxiliar utilizado es G. mellonelia. La totalidad de los resultados se obtienen al cuarto día de comenzada la experiencia, teniendo al segundo más del 50 % de la información. La técnica descripta se compra con la ideada por Bedding y Akhurst utilizando suelo infestado artificialmente con N. carpocapsae en concentraciones conocidas.
