    Insect growth regulators with dissimilar chemical structures possess biological activity in parasitic and free-living nematodes. Certain steroids inhibit growth and reproduction in Caenorhabditis elegans, Nippostrongylus brasiliensis, and Heligmosoides polygyrus (=Nematospiroides dubius). Sesquiterpenoid insect juvenile hormones and their analogs disrupt the development of a wide variety of nematodes, whereas nonterpenoid insect juvenile hormone mimics such as benzimidazoles and methoxyphenyl ethers inhibit egg hatch in the pinewood nematode, Bursaphelenchus xylophilus, and reduce growth in a goat parasite, Haemonchus contortus. The insect anti-juvenile hormone precocene II has biological activity against Caenorhabditis remanei, but its role as a nematode antihormone has not been fully clarified. The impact of these compounds on the hormonal systems in insects is fairly clear; their role as endocrine-active bioregulators in nematodes has not yet
