A Chamber for culturing and collecting the Nematode Panagrellus redivivus

Nature volume 192, pages 472–473 (1961)Cite this article

Abstract

Panagrellus redivivus L., Goodey, 1945, is frequently the nematode chosen for laboratory work because of its size (maximum length of approximately 1.5 mm.) and the ease with which it can be cultivated1. This free-living worm has been employed for the evaluation of nematocides2 and repellants3, in metabolic studies4, and to induce morphogenesis in predaceous fungi5.
