Two Turkish entomopathogenic
nematodes isolates, Steinernema feltiae-KV06 (Filipjev) (Rhabditida: Steinernematidae) and
Heterorhabditis bacteriophora-EO7 (Rhabditida: Heterorhabtidae), were tested against the cockroach, Blatta lateralis Walker (Blattodea:
Blattidae) to
determine their potential for its control. The isolates were obtained from
Kelebekler Vadisi and Eğriova Nature Parks in Ankara Province, Turkey. These
isolates were applied at concentrations of 100, 250, 500 and 1000 IJ/cm2
to B. lateralis nymphs
in 9cm diameter Petri dishes. The mortalities were recorded
at 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12 and 14 days after application. At 1000 IJs/cm2,
S. feltiae-KV06 and H. bacteriophora-EO7 caused the highest
mortality (100.0±0.0%)
with an LT50 of 2.3 and 2.6 days, respectively, and an LT90
of 6.6 and 7.9 days, respectively. The lowest mortality rate caused by both
species was at 100IJs/cm2 after 2 days of exposure (S. feltiae-KV06: 0.6±1.4; H. bacteriophora-EO7: 0.0±0.0). There was no significant difference in the
efficacy of the isolates at all concentrations and for all time periods. The
effectiveness of both isolates against this pest should be tested at different
temperatures and humidities and on different surfaces such as ceramic, concrete
and parquet.

Türkistan hamamböceği Blatta lateralis’in Türk entomopatojen nematod izolatlarına olan hassasiyetinin belirlenmesi

Öz

Bu
çalışmada iki yerel entomopatojen nematod izolatının (Steinernema feltiae-KV06 (Filipjev) (Rhabditida: Steinernematidae) ve Heterorhabditis bacteriophora-EO7
(Rhabditida: Heterorhabtidae) Blatta lateralis Walker (Blattodea: Blattidae)’in biyolojik mücadelesindeki kullanım
olanakları araştırılmıştır. Çalışmada kullanılan izolatlar Ankara ili
Kelebekler Vadisi ve Eğriova Tabiat Parklarından elde edilmiştir. İzolatlar, 9cm
çapındaki petri kutularına bırakılan B.
lateralis nimflerine 100, 250, 500 ve 1000 IJ/cm2 dozlarında
uygulanmıştır.  B. lateralis nimflerindeki ölümler, uygulamadan 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12
ve 14gün sonra kaydedilmiştir. 1000 IJ/cm2'de, S. feltiae-KV06 ve H.
bacteriophora-EO7’nın, LT50 değerleri 2.3 ve 2.6 gün ve LT90
değerleri ile sırasıyla 6.6 ve 7.9 gün ile en yüksek ölüm oranına (%
100.0 ± 0.0) neden olmuştur. Her iki izolattaki en düşük ölüm yüzdesi, 2 gün
maruziyetten sonra 100IJs/cm2'de belirlenmiştir (S. feltiae-KV06: 0.6±1.4 ve H. bacteriophora-EO7: 0.0±0.0).  Farklı zaman aralıklarındaki LC50,90 değerleri
her iki izolat arasında gözardı edilebilecek düzeyde farklılık göstermekle
birlikte, S. feltiae-KV06’nın B. lateralis nimflerine karşı H. bacteriophora-EO7’dan
daha etkili olduğu görülmektedir. Bununla birlikte, her iki izolatın da farklı sıcaklık, nem ve beton,
parke ve fayans gibi farklı yüzeylerde de zararlı üzerindeki etkinliklerinin test
edilmesi gerekmektedir.
