Low cost in vitro mass production of Neoaplectana and Heterorhabditis species (Nematoda) for field control of insect pests.
1981
Bedding R.A.
Simple new methods are described for rearing species of Neoaplectana and Heterorhabditis monoxenically and cheaply in large quantities for use in biological control. Yields of more than half a million nematodes/g of an homogenate of pig kidney/fat on crumbed polyether polyurethane sponge in conical flasks were obtained consistently for some species. The method lends itself to industrial development.
