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.

Their current taxonomic status and classification is given, which is not always in agreement with that applied in Fauna Europaea or recent publications. Recently used synonyms are included and comments on the species status are sometimes added. Species originally described from Germany are particularly marked, presence of types and other voucher specimens in the German Nematode Collection - Terrestrial Nematodes (DNST) is indicated; likewise potential occurrence or absence of species in field soil and similar cultivated land is noted. Species known from indoor plants and only occasionally observed outdoors are listed separately. Synonymies and species considered as species inquirendae are listed in case records refer to Germany; records and identifications considered as doubtful are also listed. In a separate section notes on a number of genera and species are added, taxonomic problems are indicated, and data on morphology, distribution and habitat of some recently discovered species and of still unidentified or undescribed species or populations are given. Longidorus macroteromucronatus is synonymised with L. poessneckensis. Paratrophurus striatus is transferred as T. casigo nom. nov., comb. nov. to the genus Tylenchorhynchus. Neotypes of Merlinius bavaricus and Bursaphelenchus fraudulentus are designated.

  • Relationships of Plant Parasitic Nematodes to Sites in Native Iowa Prairies ~
    Relationships of Plant Parasitic Nematodes to Sites in Native Iowa Prairies ~ D. P. SCHMITT and D. C. NORTON 2 Abstract: Soil samples were collected from three native Iowa prairies and analyzed for plant paiasitic nematodes and selected soil properties. Sites or nematodes were clustered with similarities related to habitat by a cluster analysis of site by nematode species and of nematodes by site. Some nematodes occurred in a wide range of prairie habitats, whereas others were more restricted. For example, greater numbers of Xiphinema americanum were in the low, well-drained sites than in the low wet sites or upland dry sites. Wet sites contained fewer nematodes than well-drained sites. Well-drained sites contained mainly Tylenchorhynchus maximus, Helicotylenchus pseudorobustus, and X. americanum. Wetter sites contained almost exclusively X. chambersi, H. hydrophilus, Telylenchus ]octus, and an undescribed species of Tylenchorhynchus. Key words: habitat relationships, H. leiocephalus, Aorolaimus torpidus, T. nudus. Investigations of plant parasitic nematodes Moraine. Hayden Prairie in Howard County is in native grasslands in the United States have about 135 miles northeast of the Kalsow Prairie resulted mostly in faunistic lists and associated and about 200 miles east of the Cayler Prairie, plants (4, 5, 6, 11). That more nematode and is in the Cresco-Lourdes-Clyde soil studies in native areas have not been made is association. These prairies have never been surprising, since most nematodes in USA cultivated, and they have been set aside as cultivated soils probably had their ancestry in preserves, two of them being registered Natural virgin areas in relatively recent times.

Bora KAYDAN4,5 Uğur GÖZEL3* Abstract In this study, plant parasitic nematode fauna from Mount Ararat Was determined according to altitude. A total of 30 soil samples Were taken in 2013 during summer. Nematodes Were extracted by a modified Baermann funnel technique. Nematodes Were identified by morphology, morphometric and phylogenetic analysis based on sequences of the D2-D3 and ITS1-rRNA gene sequences. Permanent slides of individuals Were made and species-specific characters Were screened by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). SEM studies Were processed at the Department of Animal Biology, Vegetal Biology and Ecology, SEM laboratory University of Jaén in Spain during 2014. A total of 19 plant parasitic nematodes Were identified from Mount Ararat. Three plant parasitic nematodes Rotylenchus conicaudatus Atighi et al., 2011 (Nematoda: Hoplolaimidae), Heterodera trifolii Goffart, 1932 (Nematoda: Heteroderidae) and Tylenchorhynchus mangiferae (Luqman & Khan, 1986) (Nematoda: Belonolaimidae) from this study are neW records for plant parasitic nematode fauna of the Turkish.

Abstract: Six belonolaim species were collected from grasslands of Sabalan region. The found species belong to genera Amplimerlinius, Merlinius, Nagelus, Neodolichorhynchus, Paramerlinius and Tylenchorhynchus. Among the found species, Neodolichorhynchus judithae is reported for the first time from Iran and is characterized by having offset head, cuticule with 16 longitudinal ridges, delicate stylet 21-23 µm long, presence of post intestinal sac and tail with annulated terminus. Keywords: Ardebil province, grasslands, new record, morphological characters, Tylenchina. Introduction12 The most recent review on taxonomy of this group of nematodes is made by Sturhan (2012). Based on morphological characters (amphids, In this review, he considered the results of the phasmids, deirids, lateral field and head sensory molecular phylogenetic studies and presence of organs), Ryss (1993) suggested the combination dierids in subfamily Merliniinae and the genus of Pratylenchoides Winslow, 1958 and Pratylenchoides and placed them in family Merliniinae sensu Siddiqi 2000 members Merliniidae with two subfamilies, Merliniinae (Nagelus Thorne & Malek, 1968, Merlinius and Pratylenchoidinae.

  • Ecology and Biology of Nematodes Associated with Grass
    ECOLOGY AND BIOLOGY OF NEMATODES ASSOCIATED WITH GRASS by John Bridge B.Sc.(Hull), M.Sc.(McGi11) A THESIS PRESENTED FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY in the Faculty of Science, University of London Imperial College Field Station, January, 1971 Ashurst Lodge, Sunninghill, Ascot 2 ABSTRACT Nineteen genera of plant parasitic nematodes were found in grassland pasture soils, of these only Tylenchorhynchus and Tylenchus were present in all the fields sampled, and Helicoty- lenchus, Paratylenchus and Pratylenchus occurred in all but one of the fields. The other genera most frequently found were Aphelenchoides, Aphelenchus, Longidorus and Pratylenchoides. The vertical distribution of nematodes in grassland soil was studied. Certain plant parasitic genera had distinctly different soil depth preferences which did not vary at different sampling times throughout the year. Highest populations of Tylenchorhynchus species occurred in the top 5 cm of soil, those of alenchus species in the upper 15 cm, Paratylenchus microdorus between 15 and 25 cm and Longidorus species below 30 cm. Pratylenchus and Helicotylenchus were irregularly distributed in the soil profile. The morphological characteristics of the ten species of Tylenchorhynchus found in grassland pasture soils are described and figured. Observations on the behaviour of seven alpnchorhynchus species on grass seedling roots showed that the method of feeding varied considerably between species. Some species were browsing ecto- parasites others fed in aggregations on root tips, and two species exhibited both a sedentary ectoparasitic and a migratory semi- endoparasitic feeding behaviour. 3 Relationships between nematodes and growth of perennial ryegrass was studied. No significant reduction in top or root grOwth occurred in soil experiments when populations were equivalent to, or greater than, field populations.

Specimens belonging to three known species of Tylenchorhynchus (T. agri, T. dubius and T. maximus) collected from various localities in Romania were studied by light microscopy. Additional morphometries, illustrations and data referring to their habitat are provided. The geographical distribution of T. dubius and T. maxim liS in Romania is broadened. A description and il­ lustration of a previously undescribed species, based upon a single female, is given.
