Entomopathogenic nematode performance in three honey bee pests: small hive beetle, greater and lesser wax moths
  • Description

    The dataset contains raw data on the virulence, penetration rate, and reproductive potential of entomopathogenic nematodes (EPNs) in three honey bee pests: small hive beetle (SHB), lesser wax moth (LWM), and greater wax moth (GWM) standardized in their body mass. Mortality rates are recorded across varying EPN doses, with details on pest species, EPN strain, and replicate. Includes one Excel spreadsheet.
