“…However, greenhouse tests showed lower mortality (72.5%) of E. heros. Cecconello et al (2022) evaluated the potential of eight isolates of the species Heterorhabditis amazonensis to control Euschistus heros (Fabricius) under laboratory and field conditions. As results of the study, the isolates IBCB-n46, NEPET11, and IBCB-n40 caused the highest mortality in adult E. heros from laboratory rearing (100, 94, and 80%, respectively), and IBCB-n46 and NEPET11 were the best against the field population (71 and 47% mortality, respectively).…”

Background The wheat stink bug, Aelia rostrata Boheman (Hemiptera: Pentatomidae), is one of the harmful insects that caused significant product losses in cereals due to outbreaks. Entomopathogenic nematodes (EPNs) are natural enemies of soil insect pests whose effects as a biocontrol agent against many harmful pests have been demonstrated by many laboratories and field/garden studies in the world. The present laboratory studies, using native EPNs [Steinernema carpocapsae (Black sea isolate), S. feltiae (isolate 09-31) (Aydin isolate) and Heterorhabditis bacteriophora (isolate 09-43) (Aydin isolate)] against the wheat stink bug adults, were carried out. Results In the application of EPNs to the soil in plastic cups, the highest mortality rates (75 and 70%) on wheat stink bug occurred at 200 IJs cm−2 concentration of S. carpocapsae isolate at 15 and 12 °C, respectively. In other tested nematode species, the highest insect mortality was observed at 200 IJs cm−2 concentration of S. feltiae and H. bacteriophora isolates, with mortality rates of 65–35% and 55–25%, at 15 and 12 °C, respectively. S. carpocapsae (Black sea isolate) was the most pathogenic among the three nematodes tested. Conclusions It was concluded that S. carpocapsae had the potential as a biocontrol agent against the wheat stink bug, A. rostrata. The applications of S. carpocapsae were the great potential for the management of the pest. Effective use of EPNs should be evaluated in integrated pest management strategies between other biological control agents. According to EPNs laboratory experiments results, field trials should be conducted in future studies.

Summary The brown marmorated stink bug (Halyomorpha halys), a native of Asia, has become an invasive pest in North America and Europe. Given the severity of H. halys and the need for better and environmentally-friendly control methods for this pest, we evaluated the virulence four entomopathogenic nematode species (Heterorhabditis indica, Oscheius myriophilus, Steinernema eapokense and Steinernema pakistanense) that occur naturally in soils in southern Việt Nam and compared them with that of a commercially available strain of S. carpocapsae. We report for the first time the pathogenicity of Oscheius myriophilus towards BMSB. The commercial strain of S. carpocapsae was most virulent against BMSB. However, the strain of S. pakistanense isolated from soil in southern Việt Nam has potential for the biological control of this pest. To achieve this potential, further work is needed including evaluation in the field and with the formulation of the nematode inoculum.
