As such, this document is entitled “perpetual draft” with the intention of making updates as they are appropriate. Updates might include the inclusion of new high risk pests that are identified, inclusion of new survey methodology for existing pests, or removal of current pests that no longer pose a high risk or have become well established in the United States. In order to keep track of changes in the document, please find the draft log listed below. The date of the current draft is listed on the cover page. Original Submission: March 2008 Revised Submission: May 2008 August 2010: Added Diabrotica speciosa. Added Appendix M information and removed outdated informa- tion. Updated survey chapter and appendices. Adjusted scale of photographs. Fixed several typographic er- rors. Updated hyperlinks. 4 Chapter 1: Introduction Purpose of Document: Welcome to the Small Grains Commodity-based Survey Guideline. This docu- ment is intended to be a tool to assist you as you develop pest detection survey plans in your respective states for exotic pests of small grains. A detection survey determines the pres- ence or absence of a pest but does not delimit a pest or establish the preva- lence of a pest. This is a companion document to the Small Grains Commodity- based Reference, available at the CAPS website (Figure 1.1). The Small Grains Commodity-based Survey Reference is a collection of detailed datasheets on 20 pests, endemic pests easily confused with exotic pests, and potential vectors of exotic pests. These datasheets contain information on the biology, host range, survey strategies, and identification of these pests. The Small Grains Commodity-based Survey Guideline is the result of a concerted effort to help states focus resources on survey efforts and identification of a smaller group of target pests. This guide contains little information about biol- ogy. We must acknowledge that there is no silver bullet survey that would be wholly applicable to each state. Environment, personnel, budgets, and re- sources vary from state to state. However, as state participants in the Coopera- tive Agricultural Pest Survey (CAPS), you can take steps to increase the uniform- Figure 1.1 Cover Page of the ity and usability of data across political, geographic, and climatic regions, while Small Grains Commodity –based Reference.

The purpose of this man- small grains including information ual is to provide a framework to aid cooperators in collecting the best samples on biology, survey, and identifi- cation. The document is avail- to send to a qualified taxonomist or diagnostician for pest identification. Consid- able for download from the erable diagnostic or taxonomic expertise may already exist in your state. CAPS website. The survey methods described in this document combine survey strategies for exotic pests, including arthropods, plant pathogens, and nematodes. It is important to note that these broad categories have unique biological features that dictate current methods of survey. However, each category is grouped according to an appropriate sampling method within the context of this manual This Commodity-based Survey Guideline is intended to be implemented over several years with the initial field survey year beginning in FY 09. Portions of the recommendations may need clarification or adjustment as funding levels change, new threats are identified, or detection technologies improve. The transition to commodity based survey has just begun, and as such, end user feedback will be imperative to the creation of a useful end-product for small grains and other commodities of large economic importance. National sur- vey methodologies as established will take precedence over the methods described in this manual. Meth- ods listed in Appendix M of the National Survey Guidelines will also take precedence over the methods de- scribed. Table 1.1 Small grains value and usage What is a Small Grain?

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.

During 2010-2012, a survey was conducted to determine the distribution and diversity of the cereal cyst nematodes (CCN), including Heterodera filipjevi, within the middle Volga River and South Ural regions of the Russian Federation. A total of 270 soil samples were collected. Seven populations of CCN were found in the rhizosphere area of various cereal plants that showed symptoms of nematode disease in Saratov and Chelyabinsk regions. The highest nematode population density was found in Chelyabinsk Region, with a mean density of 100 cysts (100 g soil)–1. The morphological and morphometric characteristics of these populations are presented showing variations in cyst body width, underbridge and vulval slit length, and in the vulva-anus distance. The morphometrics of second-stage juveniles showed minor differences between Saratov and Chelyabinsk populations compared with those of the paratypes and the population from the Republic of Bashkortostan (Bashkiria).

  • Plant-Parasitic Nematodes in Germany – an Annotated Checklist
    86 (3) · December 2014 pp. 177–198 Plant-parasitic nematodes in Germany – an annotated checklist Dieter Sturhan Arnethstr. 13D, 48159 Münster, Germany, and c/o Julius Kühn-Institut, Toppheideweg 88, 48161 Münster, Germany E-mail: [email protected] Received 15 September 2014 | Accepted 28 October 2014 Published online at www.soil-organisms.de 1 December 2014 | Printed version 15 December 2014 Abstract A total of 268 phytonematode species indigenous in Germany or more recently introduced and established outdoors are listed. 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.

Kelley Thomas Chair of Advisory Panel Dr Martin Sheader 2 UNIVERSITY OF SOUTHAMPTON ABSTRACT FACULTY OF ENGINEERING, SCIENCE & MATHEMATICS SCHOOL OF OCEAN & EARTH SCIENCE Doctor of Philosophy RESOLVING PHYLOGENETIC RELATIONSHIPS WITHIN THE ORDER ENOPLIDA (PHYLUM NEMATODA) by Holly Marie Bik The Order Enoplida (Phylum Nematoda) has been proposed as a divergent nematode lineage—Enoplid nematodes are thought to exhibit morphological and developmental characteristics present in the ‘ancestral nematode’. However, previous molecular phylogenies have failed to unequivocally confirm the position of this group. The Enoplida is primarily comprised of free-living marine species; if these taxa represent close relatives of the nematode ancestor, this relationship would presumably imply a marine origin for the phylum. Prior to this investigation, few publically available gene sequences existed for Enoplid nematodes, and published sequences represented only shallow water fauna from Northwest Europe. This study has aimed to improve resolution at the base of the nematode tree, using drastically increased taxon-sampling within the previously neglected Enoplid clade. Morphological identifications, nuclear gene sequences (18S and 28S rRNA), and mitochondrial gene sequences (Cox1) were obtained from marine specimens representing a variety of deep-sea and intertidal habitats.
