RESEARCH OVERVIEW

Abstract

This research paper is concerned with determining the biocontrol potential of entomopathogenic nematodes against the Comstock worm in laboratory conditions, presents an optimal standard research design for the use of virulent species of beneficial nematodes against the pest, and provides information on the stages of experimental work organization. This scientific information is important in bringing safe biological control technology against Comstock worm to the field workers in our country.
