Citation:Proceedings of the Beltwide Cotton Conference. 2: 1296-1299. . 
Abstract:
In a laboratory study, Steinernema riobravis [S. riobravae], released on the soil surface, moved greater distances to infect pink bollworm (Pectinophora gossypiella) larval hosts compared with S. carpocapsae. Both nematode species induced greater larval mortality in soil with a moisture level of 30% than at 25%
