Abstract

The predatory capacity of three isolates of the nematodes predacious fungi Duddingtonia flagrans (AC001), Monacrosporium thaumasium and Arthrobotrys robusta on infective larvae of cyathostomes was evaluated in laboratorial conditions in medium water-agar 2% (WA 2%). The isolates AC001, NF34 and I31 had presented significant reduction (p<0.01) de 97.5%, 72.5% e 85% respectively in the average of infective larvae of ciathostomes recovered of the medium WA2% in the end of five days. The results of this assay evidence that these isolates could be used in the biological control of ciathostomes of equines.
