| effect of nematode-trapping fungi on an entomopathogenic nematode originating from the same field site in california. | we determined whether nematode-trapping fungi may influence the dynamics of a coastal shrub community. the food chain interactions in the shrub community involve the dominant plant species, its major insect herbivore, and an entomopathogenic nematode, heterorhabditis hepialus. of the 12 nematode-trapping fungi previously isolated from soils at the study site, 5 were selected for this study. arthrobotrys oligospora, geniculifera paucispora, monacrosporium eudermatum, and monacrosporium cionopagum ... | 1996 | 8931364 |
