Damage
Steiermark 2014
Despite the use of chemical control measures (neonicotinoides, tefluthrin,
cypermethrin), severe damage is reported from Styria, Austria. Without crop
rotation huge populations build up, which can hardly be controled anymore.
Even with crop rotation, control measures are needed to keep populations
below the damage threshold.

• Field trials since 2004 in A, HU, D and I
• Certified partners (CABI, AGES, Agricola, Sagea, LTZ)
• Always compared to chemical products
• In HU and A trials with artificial infestation of plants
(100-300 eggs/plant) on rotated fields
• We assessed control of adults, ag chems provide root
damage, but chemicals promote growth of roots

Investigations on nematodes persistence indicate that
nematodes survive at high enough numbers for 4-6 weeks
to control pest larvae at emergence in May/June.

Rotation
Some crops attract Dvv
and eggs are laid.
Current strategy: Crop
other then maize every
three years.
Control necessary

Summary
Dianem® is an effective and environmentally safe control measure
Provides sustainable control of Dvv
Subsequent use reduces population density
Easy to apply
More than 40 field trials with natural population support findings
Research (EU project Biocomes) provides strains with higher virulence
In future potential for dose reduction to better compete with chemicals
