TI  - Control of Larval Northern Corn Rootworm. (Diabrotica barberi) with Two 
      Steinernematid Nematode Species.
PG  - 127-31
AB  - The entomogenous nematodes Steinerema feltiae and S. bibionis did not penetrate 
      the roots of corn, Zea mays, to infect larval northern corn rootworm (NCR), 
      Diabrotica barberi, feeding within. Laboratory bioassays against first instar NCR 
      indicated that S. feltiae, Mexican strain (LD = 49 nematodes/insect) is more 
      virulent than S. bibionis (LD = 100). Numbers of NCR larvae in a grain corn crop 
      were reduced by both nematode species applied at corn seeding time at the rate of 
      10,000 infective-stage juveniles per linear meter of corn row. The chemical 
      insecticide fonofos provided significantly better control than either nematode 
      species.
