A wide host range, reaching more than 500 plants species and the presence of more than 30 biological races defined by their host preference, make this species one of the most difficult nematodes to manage. Since 2011, garlic producers from Ontario and Quebec have been particularly affected with economic losses caused by this pest. An appropriate extraction method is essential for the detection of the nematode. However, the extraction efficacy will be influenced by many factors such as the nematode species (size and motility), the material to be diagnosed (soil or plants tissues) and the type of soil or plants tissues. Therefore, many different methods exist, each with their own advantages and disadvantages. Three extraction methods (Baermann pan, Baermann funnel and sonication) were compared for the extraction of nematodes from garlic bulbs, stems and leaves. Three methods (Baermann pan, Baermann funnel and sugar flotation) were also tested on four types of soil sample. This study confirmed the efficiency of the Baermann pan with D. dipsaci, both with soil and plant tissue samples. Reproduction of D. dipsaci on a particular host depends on its biological race, which was unknown for the populations of eastern Canada. In this study, the host range of four populations of D. dipsaci from Quebec and Ontario was determined in a greenhouse test on 11 crops. Garlic, onion and green onion showed great susceptibility to the nematode while reproduction on potato was poor. No development was observed on corn, soybean, barley, alfalfa, mustard, carrot, and lettuce. These plants could therefore be used in rotation crops in a control program. Finally, thirty-two populations of D. dipsaci were genetically characterized using genotyping-by-sequencing. Comparison of allele frequencies at 481 SNPs showed that most of the populations had a genotype similar to a reference population from northern Ontario. However, a sample from eastern Quebec exhibited a very distinct genotype and will require further phenotyping in the greenhouse to preclude the possibility of a different race.

    BIOLOGY AND CONTROL OF STEM AND ROOT KNOT NEMATODES r Becky B. Westerdahl1 Abstract: Plant parasitic nematodes are nonsegmented-microscopic roundworms which are frequently present in alfalfa fields. Although more than 10 different genera have been found in alfalfa fields in California, two (stem and bulb, and root knot) are most commonly associated with damage. A management plan to fit a particular growing situation should be developed using a combination of techniques including: planting site selection, certified seed, clean equipment, weed and irrigation management, resistant varieties, crop rotation, fallow, organic amendments and chemical nematicides. Ke~words nematode, Ditylenchus, stem and bulb, Meloidogyne, root knot, INTRODUCTION Plant parasitic nematodes are nonsegmented-microscopic roundworms which are frequently present in alfalfa fields. Whether or not alfalfa is to be planted in a nematode infested area, a grower should be knowledgeable about nematodes. If nematodes are present, both pre and postplant management strategies should be developed for pathogenic species. If an alfalfa field or a potential planting site is not infested, a grower should be aware of techniques available to prevent the introduction of harmful species. For growers to carry on a nematode pest management program they need to be familiar with (1) nematode biology; (2) symptoms and signs of nematode f damage; (3) how nematodes injure plants; (4) how to sample for nematodes; and (5) the principles underlying various management techniques including: planting site selection, the use of certified seed, the importance of using clean equipment and irrigation water, weed management, the use of resistant varieties, crop rotation, fallow, organic amendments, and chemical nematicides.

  • Biodiversity of Compost Mesofauna and Its Potential As an Indicator of the Composting Process Status
    ® Dynamic Soil, Dynamic Plant ©2011 Global Science Books Biodiversity of Compost Mesofauna and its Potential as an Indicator of the Composting Process Status Hanne Steel* • Wim Bert Nematology Unit, Department of Biology, Ghent University, K.L. Ledeganckstraat 35, 9000 Ghent, Belgium Corresponding author : * [email protected] ABSTRACT One of the key issues in compost research is to assess the quality and maturity of the compost. Biological parameters, especially based on mesofauna, have multiple advantages for monitoring a given system. The mesofauna of compost includes Isopoda, Myriapoda, Acari, Collembola, Oligochaeta, Tardigrada, Hexapoda, and Nematoda. This wide spectrum of organisms forms a complex and rapidly changing community. Up to the present, none of the dynamics, in relation to the composting process, of these taxa have been thoroughly investigated. However, from the mesofauna, only nematodes possess the necessary attributes to be potentially useful ecological indicators in compost. They occur in any compost pile that is investigated and in virtually all stages of the compost process. Compost nematodes can be placed into at least three functional or trophic groups. They occupy key positions in the compost food web and have a rapid respond to changes in the microbial activity that is translated in the proportion of functional (feeding) groups within a nematode community. Further- more, there is a clear relationship between structure and function: the feeding behavior is easily deduced from the structure of the mouth cavity and pharynx. Thus, evaluation and interpretation of the abundance and function of nematode faunal assemblages or community structures offers an in situ assessment of the compost process.

  • Race Genesis in Ditylenchus Dipsaci 1) by D. R. Viglierchio
    RACE GENESIS IN DITYLENCHUS DIPSACI 1) BY D. R. VIGLIERCHIO Department of Nematology, University of California, Davis A garlic isolate of Ditylenchus dipsaci has been found to be polyphagous.Under aseptic conditions this isolate has reproduced on a wide range of plant host tissues many of which are the key hosts reported for the biological races of the stem and bulb nematode. In addition the garlic isolate reproduced on two of nineteen fungus cultures tested. It is clear from the literature reports of many workers that different populations of D. dipsaci can vary in host ranges from very narrow to very broad. It is suggested, as a working hypothesis, that the nominal species, Ditylenchus dipsaci, gene pool be considered as "wild type" polyphagous with race deviations as part of the gene continuum in the fashion illustrated by the schematic representation. The stem and bulb nematode, Ditylenchu.r dipsaci, has been recognized for just over a century. It is perhaps the best known of all plant-parasitic nematodes for complexity in racial characterization. Though restricted essentially to the temperate zones of the world, representatives of the species have been found in hot desert soils, irrigated warm lands, cool most areas, and cold high mountain valleys wherever a host plant is able to grow. The nematode's cryptobiotic state enables it to survive sub-zero winter temperatures, summer soil temperatures of 55°C, or decades of desiccation. It is one of the more cosmopolitan of plant-parasitic nema- todes. It has been reported on nearly 50 botanical families including bryophytes and monocotyledonous and dicotyledonous plants (Filipjev & Schuurmans Stek- hoven, 1941).

Surveys were conducted in Idaho, USA during the 2000-2006 cropping seasons to study the occurrence, population density, host association and distribution of plant-parasitic nematodes associated with major crops, grasses and weeds. Eighty-four species and 43 genera of plant-parasitic nematodes were recorded in soil samples from 29 crops in 20 counties in Idaho. Among them, 36 species are new records in this region. The highest number of species belonged to the genus Pratylenchus; P. neglectus was the predominant species among all species of the identified genera. Among the endoparasitic nematodes, the highest percentage of occurrence was Pratylenchus (29.7) followed by Meloidogyne (4.4) and Heterodera (3.4). Among the ectoparasitic nematodes, Helicotylenchus was predominant (8.3) followed by Mesocriconema (5.0) and Tylenchorhynchus (4.8). Keywords.

  • Impact of Trade on Distribution of Potato Rot Nematode (Ditylenchus Destructor) and Other Plant Nematodes
    Agronomy Research 10 (1–2), 319–328, 2012 Impact of trade on distribution of potato rot nematode (Ditylenchus destructor) and other plant nematodes E. Kruus Institute of Agricultural and Environmental Sciences, Estonian University of Life Sciences, Kreutzwaldi 1, 51014 Tartu, Estonia; e-mail: [email protected] Abstract. Scarce status reports give but little substance for convincing conclusions about the gravity of the current problem with the potato rot nematode (Ditylenchus destructor Thorne 1945). This paper reviews the international experience and presents the survey of the most recent plant nematode interception reports by member states of the European and Mediterranean Plant Protection Organization. Factors influencing the distribution and invasiveness of the species are discussed. The majority of the nematode infestations were identified in consignments of bonsai or aquarium plants, originating predominantly from Asia via Western European countries. Potatoes were the most frequent nematode pathways as detected by Northern, Eastern and Southern Europe. D. destructor has been among the ten best recognised phytonematodes in the international plant trade, even though it was present only in about 3% of the nematode-related interceptions of potato lots. Seed potato has been found contaminated with Potato Cyst Nematodes on several occasions, whereas latent potato rot nematode infestation in ware potato or ornamental plants may easily be overlooked. Special research programs, including the comparative population genetic analyses are necessary to establish the natural and introduced distribution of D. destructor and substantiate creating pest free areas. Key words: plant health, invasion, phytosanitary measures INTRODUCTION Potato rot nematode Ditylenchus destructor Thorne 1945has resulted in serious economic consequences in Eastern European potato production.
