| Abstract |
Capability of Phasmarhabditis lawfiki Azzam to control the snails Eobania vernziculata (Muller) and Theba pisana (Muller) and the insect larvae of Agrotis ipsilon (Hufngel) and Spodoptera littoralis (Boisd) was investigated under greenhouse conditions, using three treatments (infective stage, recovering snails and gravid females). The highest rate of mortality 97.5% was reported for Agrotis ipsilom when using recovering snails in infection. Less mortality (92.5%) was recorded for Eobania vermiculata, although it is the natural host of the parasitic nematode Phasmarhabditis lawfiki Azzam. The rate of recovered nematode individuals was higher (91.89 %) in the snail E. vermziculata than A. ipsilon (85%). The highest number of recovered nematode per individual (17515) was reported also for E. vermiculata in the same treatment. Meanwhile, the lowest mortality rate, the rate of recovering individuals and the number of recovered nematodes were reported for Spodoptera littorulis when using gravid females in infection.
