Technical Abstract: Entomopathogenic nematodes bridge the gap between hosts by producing infective stage juveniles that search for, and infect, insects. Infective juveniles are likely to encounter both uninfected and already infected host insects, which will differ in their quality as a host. Here we tested the attraction response of three entomopathogenic nematode species (Steinernema carpocapsae, S. glaseri, and S. riobrave), that have different foraging strategies, to infected and uninfected insects (Galleria mellonella and Tenebrio molitor). Infected hosts were tested at 24 h intervals from start of infection to the emergence of infective juveniles from the depleted host. Steinernema glaseri was highly attracted to both uninfected and infected hosts, whereas S. riobrave and S. carpocapsae showed no significant attraction to hosts, with the latter moving away from them in some cases. Level of response to the infected hosts tended not change with time after infection and to be similar to the uninfected host, except for S. glaseri infected T. molitor which tended to be less attractive to S. glaseri infective juveniles than uninfected hosts. At each tested time point after infection, hosts were dissected to determine the number and stages of the nematodes present. Previous studies have shown changes in the production of CO2 from infected hosts over time. In this study, infective juvenile response to hosts was unchanged even though the quality of the host as resource was changing, as measured by the status of the infection, and the cues given off by the host were changing. These results suggest that any influence of host infection status on infective juvenile behavior is occurring at other steps in the host-infection process than host orientation.
