First record of entomopathogenic nematodes from Yucatán State, México and their infectivity capacity against Aedes aegypti
Background Biological control using entomopathogenic nematodes (EPN) has demonstrated good potential to contribute to the integral control of mosquito larvae, which as adults are vectors of diseases such as Dengue fever, Zika and Chikungunya. However, until now there are no records of the presence o...
