[Effect of nematoda Aphanitylenchus sp. on the reproductive capacity of fleas Ceratophyllus consimilis].
The paper presents results of experimental studies of the effect of Allantonematidae on the reproduction of fleas. It has been established that the pairing of non-infected females with males infected with nematodes reduces the fecundity rate while the pairing of non-infected males with females infected with nematodes causes a complete stopping of reproduction of laboratory population. The conclusion was drawn on the role of allantonematides in the regulation of abundance of fleas of rodents in nature.
