Nature of interactions among the entomopathogenic nematodes, their bacterial symbionts and the insect hosts
Deliverables
- Models indicating the Nematode- Bacterium- Insect (ENBI) specificities in different cropping systems, involving target as well as non target insects.
- Super EPN with high virulence potential and stability.
- Factors responsible for phase transition in bacterial symbiont and methods to overcome.
- Novel bacteria, if any, involved in tripartite ENBI complex.
- Novel biotoxins having wide spectrum biopesticidal activities.
- Factors responsible for virulence and those supporting nematode multiplication.
