Abstract

A capacidade predatória de um isolado de fungo predador de nematoides Duddingtonia flagrans (AC001) sobre larvas infectantes de ciatostomíneos foi avaliada em condições laboratoriais em ensaio experimental em meio ágar-água 2% (AA 2%). Houve redução significativa (p The predatory capacity of one isolate of nematode-trapping fungus Duddingtonia flagrans (AC001) on infective larvae of cyathostomes was evaluated in laboratorial conditions in medium water-agar 2% (WA 2%). There was significant reduction (p < 0. 01) of 93.64% in the average of infective larvae of cyathostomes recovered of medium WA 2% at seven day. These results show that the isolated AC001 could be used in the biological control of cyathostomes of horses.
