Abstract	Entomoparasitic nematodes of the species Heterorhabditis bacteriophora are known to be highly virulent against larval stages of the western corn rootworm (WCR) under controlled laboratory conditions (töPFer, 2005). However, a practical and sustainable plant protection strategy has to be efficient also under various field conditions. In addition the application of nematodes has to be easy to practice in order to be accepted by the farmers. Therefore only those application methods were used in our experiments that can be carried out in one step together with sowing of maize grains. To show the reliability of such control measures several field experiments were designed between 2009 and 2011 in the framework of the German Diabrotica research program (http://diabrotica.jki. bund.de/).
