| Sumario: | Nematodes of the Meloidogyne genus affect to most of crops of an economic importance in Argentina. Researches related to new control strategies are needed to reduce the damage produced by these organisms. The objective of this work was to compare the effects of Galleria mellonella cadavers infected with the Argentine isolates Heterorhabditis bacteriophora Rama Caída and Steinernema rarum NOE, cadaver macerates and dead infective juveniles (IJs) on M. javanica suppression. Experiments were performed using 24-well plates and pepper plants grown in a growth chamber. The entomopathogenic nematodes-infected G. mellonella cadavers, their cadaver macerates and dead IJs were effective in suppressing M. javanica second-stage juveniles under laboratory conditions. The use of H. bacteriophora-infected cadavers caused a significant decrease in the number of galls and egg masses on pepper plants parasitized by M. javanica, in a growth-chamber. |
