Resistant Parasites: Predatory Fungus Could Aid Control/Predatory activity of the nematophagous fungus Duddingtonia flagrans on horse cyathostomin infective larvae "Predatory activity of the nematophagous fungus Duddingtonia flagrans on horse cyathostomin infective larvae. This work was performed to determine the predatory capacity in vitro of the nematophagous fungus Duddingtonia flagrans (isolate AC001) on cyathostomin infective larvae of horse (L(3)). ... The interaction there was a significant reduction (p < 0.01) of 93.64% in the cyathostomin l(3) recovered. the results showed that the d. flagrans is a potential candidate to the biological control of horse cyathostomin l(3)." pmid: 20213221 [pubmed - as supplied by publisher] For More Information: Resistant Parasites: Predatory Fungus Could Aid Control Equine Internal Parasites/Harold C.
