November 2002 Division of Plant Industry The Mediterranean Cereal Cyst Nematode, Heterodera latipons: a Menace to Cool Season Cereals of the United States1 N. Greco2, N. Vovlas2, A. Troccoli2 and R.N. Inserra3 INTRODUCTION: Cool season cereals, such as hard and bread wheat, oats and barley, are among the major staple crops of economic importance worldwide. These monocots are parasitized by many pathogens and pests including plant parasitic nematodes. Among nematodes, cyst-forming nematodes (Heterodera spp.) are considered to be very damaging because of crop losses they induce and their worldwide distribution. The most economically important cereal cyst nematode species damaging winter cereals are: Heterodera avenae Wollenweber, which occurs in the United States and is the most widespread and damaging on a world basis; H. filipjevi (Madzhidov) Stelter, found in Europe and Mediterranean areas and most often confused with H. avenae; and H. hordecalis Andersson, which seems to be confined to central and north European countries. In the 1950s and early 1960s, a cyst nematode was detected in the Mediterranean region (Israel and Libya) on the roots of stunted wheat plants (Fig. 1 A,B). It was described as a new species and named H. latipons based on morphological characteristics of the Israel population (Franklin 1969). Subsequently, damage by H. latipons was reported on cereals in other Mediterranean countries (Fig. 1). MORPHOLOGICAL CHARACTERISTICS AND DIAGNOSIS: Heterodera latipons cysts are typically ovoid to lemon-shaped as those of H. avenae. They belong to the H. avenae group be- cause they have short vulva slits (< 16 µm) (Figs.

DNA-based diagnostic methods have already gained acceptance in applications ranging from quarantine determinations to assessments of biodiversity. Researchers are currently in an information-gathering mode, with intensive efforts applied to accu- mulating nucleotide sequence of 18S and 28S ribosomal genes, internally transcribed spacer regions, and mitochondrial genes. Important linkages with collateral data such as digitized images, video clips and specimen voucher web pages are being established on GenBank and NemATOL, the nematode-specific Tree of Life database.

Smiley and Guiping Yan Nematodes are tiny but complex unsegmented roundworms that are anatomically differentiated for feeding, digestion, locomotion, and reproduction. These small animals occur worldwide in all environments. Most species are beneficial to agriculture. They make important contributions to organic matter decomposition and the food chain. Some species, however, are parasitic to plants or animals. One type of plant-parasitic nematode forms egg-bearing cysts on roots, damaging and reducing yields of many agriculturally important crops. The cyst nematode genus Heterodera contains as many as 70 species, including a complex of 12 species known as the Heterodera avenae group. Species in this group invade and reproduce only in living roots of cereals and grasses. They do not Figure 1. Year in which Heterodera avenae (Ha) and reproduce on any broadleaf plant.

Box 38135/567, Arak, Iran †Nematology Research Department, Iranian Research Institute of Plant Protection, Tehran, Iran ‡Agricultural Research and Natural Resources Centre of Khuzestan, Ahvaz, Iran 1Corresponding author’s e-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT Cereal cyst nematodes are one of the most important soil-borne pathogens of cereals throughout the world. This group of nematodes is considered the most economically damaging pathogens of wheat and barley in Iran. In the present study, a series experiments were conducted during 2007-2010 to determine the distribution and population density of cereal cyst nematodes and to examine the biology of Heterodera latipons in the winter wheat cv. Sardari in a microplot under rain-fed conditions over two successive years in Markazi province in central Iran. Results of field survey showed that 40% of the fields were infested with at least one species of either Heterodera filipjevi or H. latipons. H. filipjevi was most prevalent in Farmahin, Tafresh and Khomein, with H. latipons being found in Khomein and Zarandieh regions. Female nematodes were also observed in Bromus tectarum, Hordeum disticum and Secale cereale, which are new host records for H. filipjevi. Also, H. filipjevi and H. latipons were found in combination with root and crown rot fungi, Bipolaris sorokiniana, Fusarium culmorum, F.

  • A Key and Compendium to Species of the Heterodera Avenae Group (Nematoda: Heteroderidae) Zafar A
    Journal of Nematology 34(3):250–262. 2002. © The Society of Nematologists 2002. A Key and Compendium to Species of the Heterodera avenae Group (Nematoda: Heteroderidae) Zafar A. Handoo1 Abstract: A key based on cyst and juvenile characters is given for identification of 12 valid Heterodera species in the H. avenae group. A compendium providing the most important diagnostic characters for use in identification of species is included as a supplement to the key. Cyst characters are most useful for separating species; these include shape, color, cyst wall pattern, fenestration, vulval slit length, and the posterior cone including presence or absence of bullae and underbridge. Also useful are those of second-stage juvenile characteristics including aspects of the stylet knobs, tail hyaline tail terminus, and lateral field. Photomicrographs of diagnostically important morphological features complement the compendium.
