Abstract Four species of plant parasitic nematodes were present in soil samples planted with forage legumes at Alachua County, Florida, USA. The detected species Belonolaimus longicaudatus, Criconemella ornate, Hoplolaimus galeatus, and Paratrichodorus minor were described in the present study. They belong to orders Rhabditida (Belonolaimus longicaudatus, Criconemella ornate, and Hoplolaimus galeatus) and Triplonchida (Paratrichodorus minor) and to taxonomical families Dolichodoridae (Belonolaimus longicaudatus), Hoplolaimidae (Hoplolaimus galeatus) Criconematidae (Criconemella ornate), and Trichodoridae (Paratrichodorus minor). The identification of the present specimens was based on the classical taxonomy, following morphological and morphometrical characters in the species specific identification keys.

Among the identified species, Tylenchorhynchus zeae Sethi and Swarup, 1968 of Telotylenchidae Siddiqi, 1960 is a new record from Iran and the isolate is described and illustrated based on morphological, morphometric, and molecular characteristics. The phylogenetic tree inferred from partial sequences of the 28S rRNA (D2D3 segments) grouped the Iranian isolate with other T. zeae sequences, forming a strongly supported clade (Bayesian posterior probability: 100%). T. zeae is reported here for the first time on Ziziphus zizyphus for Iranian nematofauna. Additional morphological and molecular information is also provided for other species including Amplimerlinius globigerus, Merlinius brevidens, Pratylenchoides alkani, P. ritteri, Scutylenchus rugosus, S. tartuensis, and Trophurus impar from B. vulgaris, C. sativus, and Z. -

Sting Nematodes Modify Metabolomic Profiles of Host Plants
www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Sting nematodes modify metabolomic profles of host plants Denis S. Willett1,5*, Camila C. Filgueiras1,5, Nicole D. Benda2, Jing Zhang3 & Kevin E. Kenworthy4 Plant-parasitic nematodes are devastating pathogens of many important agricultural crops. They have been successful in large part due to their ability to modify host plant metabolomes to their beneft. Both root-knot and cyst nematodes are endoparasites that have co-evolved to modify host plants to create sophisticated feeding cells and suppress plant defenses. In contrast, the ability of migratory ectoparasitic nematodes to modify host plants is unknown. Based on global metabolomic profling of sting nematodes in African bermudagrass, ectoparasites can modify the global metabolome of host plants. Specifcally, sting nematodes suppress amino acids in susceptible cultivars. Upregulation of compounds linked to plant defense have negative impacts on sting nematode population densities. Pipecolic acid, linked to systemic acquired resistance induction, seems to play a large role in protecting tolerant cultivars from sting nematode feeding and could be targeted in breeding programs. Nematodes are ubiquitous denizens of belowground environments. While many are free-living, the more than 4000 plant-parasitic nematodes are devastating in their impacts on human agriculture1,2. Most important agri- cultural crops sufer yield suppression from plant-parasitic nematodes with annual economic damage estimates exceeding $100 billion1,3. This devastation is due in part to the success of plant-parasitic nematodes as pathogens in overcoming plant defenses. Indeed, the manner in which plant-parasitic nematodes overcome plant defenses makes them a model system for understanding basic plant biology and mechanisms of resistance3,4. -

Variation Among Populations of Belonolaimus Iongicaudatus I
Variation among Populations of Belonolaimus Iongicaudatus I R. T. ROBBINS and HEDWIG HIRSCHMANN 2 Abstract: Three North Carolina populations of Belonolairnus longicaudatus differed significantly from three Georgia populations in stylet measurements, the c ratio, the distance of the excretory pore from the anterior end for both sexes; the a ratio for females only; and the total body length, tail length, and spicule length for males only. The Georgia nematodes were stouter, and the females possessed sclerotized vaginal pieces. The distal portion of the spicules of North Carolina males had an indentation and hump lacking in those of the Georgia males. The haploid number of chromosomes was eight for males from all populations of B. longicaudatus and a North Carolina population of B. rnaritimus. Interpopulation matings of the Tarboro, N.C. and Tifton, Ga. populations indicated that the offspring produced were infertile. Morphological differences and reproductive isolation suggest that the North Carolina and the Georgia populations belong to different species.

Box 14115-336, Rasht, Iran Received: June 27, 2016 Accepted: November 21, 2016 Abstract: The distribution of nematodes was studied in rice fields in Guilan province, Iran, from 2014 to 2016. Nematode biodiver- sity of 250 soil and root samples was examined. Thirty nematode species were identified morphologically, including plant parasites, microbivores and mycetophagous and predator species. Molecular techniques were also used for further identification of three plant parasitic species. Indicators of population were also estimated. Spiral nematodes (Helicotylenchus crenacauda Sher, 1966 and H. digiti- formis Ivanova, 1967) and stunt nematode (Tylenchorhynchus agri) were the predominant parasitic species identified. Among other species, three mononchid species were identified namely Mononchus aquaticus, Mylonchulus sigmaturus and M. polonicus. The species M. polonicus was found and reported in Iran for the first time.
