Persistence of heterorhabditis infective juveniles in soil : comparison of extraction and infectivity measurements

The persistence of Heterorhabditis megidis in soil was studied over a 4-week period. On days 0, 2, 14, and 28, infective juveniles (IJ) were extracted by centrifugal flotation, Baermann funnel, and baiting of soil with Tenebrio molitor larvae, which were then dissected. Extraction efficiencies on da...
