Abstract
Live cells of Xenorhabdus nematophilus and X. luminescens were inoculated subcutaneously into 9-day-old White Leghorn chicks and adult Swiss albino mice and intracerebrally into suckling mice. Infective-stage juveniles of Neoaplectana carpocapsae and Heterorhabditis bacteriophora were inoculated subcutaneously into adult Swiss albino mice. No disease symptoms or mortality appeared in any of the experimental animals during the course of the experiment.This publication has 2 references indexed in Scilit:
