Abstract

The growing interest in the use of entomopathogenic nematodes and their symbiotic bacteria as promising biocontrol agents of many arthropod pests and pathogens has created running technologies to expand their use globally. The related laboratory procedures and tests on these nematodes such as their isolation, count, culture, identification, pathogenicity, virulence, and environmental tolerance should form the solid basis for such an expansion with reliable uses. Extensive practical details of such procedures and tests as well as how to identify and overcome the problems associated with these aspects are addressed in this chapter.
