Laboratory assays have been carried out to artificially infect insect larvae of the birch bark-beetle ( Scolytus ratzeburgi Jans.—Coleoptera, Scolytidae) and codling moth Cydia pomonella L. —Lepidoptera, Tortricidae) as well as the potato cyst nematode— Globodera rostochiensis Wollenweber, sugar bee...
