S. affine and S. kraussei and their symbionts were reared in different combinations on Wouts agar plates, and nematode development was observed. S. affine was able to develop, mature and produce viable progeny on the symbiont of S. kraussei whereas not vice versa. These experiments explained the previously observed dominance of S. affine over S. kraussei.
