Testing the potential of entomopathogenic nematodes in attract‐and‐kill and autodissemination approaches in the control of <scp>Queensland</scp> fruit fly, <i>Bactrocera tryoni</i>
Our study is foundational to the development of attract-and-kill and autodissemination approaches involving EPNs in fruit fly control. Furthermore, H. indica and H. zealandica strains showed the highest potential as biocontrol agents against adult flies. © 2024 The Author(s).
