P.  aReduction of Haemonchus contortus infective larvae by Harposporium anguillulae in sheep faecal cultures.h[electronic resource]  c1996  aAbstract: Harposporium anguillulae is a common nematophagous fungus which colonizes cattle pats deposited in Brachiaria decumbens pasture in Brazil. To assess its possible effect on free living stages of trichostrongylid nematodes, the reduction of Haemonchus contortus infective stages in sheep faecal culture was evaluated in vitro. Addition of 300,000 conidia per gram of faeces caused a reduction of 99.5% compared to the control group. This result indicates that H. anguillulae could be a candidate for the development of strategies for the biological control of trichostrongylid nematodes.  aAnimal parasitic nematodes  aBiological control  aIntegrated pest management  aNematophagous fungi  aControle Biológico  aFungo  aHelminto  aHarposporium anguillulae  aRuminantes  aTrichostrongylid nematodes1 aROQUE, M.
