A neuropeptide modulates sensory perception in the entomopathogenic nematode Steinernema carpocapsae.

A neuropeptide modulates sensory perception in the entomopathogenic nematode Steinernema carpocapsae.

Entomopathogenic nematodes (EPNs) employ a sophisticated chemosensory apparatus to detect potential hosts. Understanding the molecular basis of relevant host-finding behaviours could facilitate improved EPN biocontrol approaches, and could lend insight to similar behaviours in economically important...
