MASS CULTURE METHOD FOR NEMATODES WHICH INFECT INSECTS USING GALLERIA MELLONELLA

摘要

The present invention relates to a method for producing an insect pathogenic nematode using a beetle larvae (Galleria mellonella) larva, more specifically, insect pathogenic by low-temperature treatment of honey bee larvae larvae at minus 5 to 20 ℃ for 20 to 60 minutes A method for enabling the mass production of nematodes.;The production method of the present invention has the advantage that can be produced in large quantities in a short period of time by reducing the formation rate of cocoon by low-temperature treatment of honeybee moth larva larvae in the above conditions, overcoming the limitation of existing small-scale culture.;Insect pathogenic nematodes, Steiner carpococcus, Honeybee moth larvae.
