Full TextAbstract
A survey of entomopathogenic nematodes was conducted in the Iran. Out of a total of 194 soil samples, 9 were positive for an isolate of entomopathogenic nematodes of the genus Steinernema. Morphological and molecular studies as well cross hybridization tests were undertaken for characterization. The isolates were identified as Steinernema feltiae. ITS sequences confirmed this. 16S rRNA sequences and phenotypic characters of its symbiotic bacterium were determined and used for identification. In the phylogenetic analysis the relationship among different isolates of native Steinernema were indicated. Laboratory test on Spodoptera exigua showed high pathogenicity of these entomopathogens
