In fact the application that no competing interests exist. of molecular methods to studies of RKN and systematics has revealed that some long-assumed single species are cryptic species that are morphologically indistinguishable but may be phylo- genetically distant to one another [8]. For these reasons, the integration of molecular and iso- zyme electrophoretic pattern techniques with classical morphological approaches should help to provide tools for differentiating Meloidogyne species and significantly improve and facilitate the routine identification of these nematodes. Meloidogyne spp. and root-lesion nematodes (Pratylenchus spp.) are the most damaging plant-parasitic nematodes of cultivated olive (Olea europaea L. subsp. europaea var. europaea), especially in nurseries [9, 10]. Olive, in wild and cultivated forms, is widely distributed in the Mediterranean Basin, and particularly in southern Spain [11–14]. Wild (Olea europaea L. subsp. europaea var. sylvestris) and cultivated olives are hosts of and frequently suffer damage by RKN found in their rhizosphere, including M. arenaria, M. baetica Castillo, Vovlas, Subbo- tin, & Troccoli, 2003, M. javanica, M. incognita, M. hapla Chitwood, 1949, M. lusitanica Abrantes & Santos, 1991, M. spartelensis Ali et al. 2015 [15, 16]. Initially, with the aim of deci- phering the biodiversity of Meloidogyne spp. infecting wild and cultivated olives in southern Spain, we surveyed 499 sampling points in Andalusia covering the diversity of olive cropping systems from traditional groves to new intensive orchards, as well as agroforestry stands where both olive forms were present. Our survey found 33 infested sampling points containing 35 populations of Meloidogyne species, morphologically similar to known Meloidogyne spp. The definitive identification of those populations prompted us to carry out an integrative taxo- nomic study to identify the species within this complex and economically important genus. The suppression of the negative effects produced in crops by RKNs is considered as a diffi- cult task due to the biological traits of both crop and RKN species as well as the high complex- ity of the soil environment [2, 17]. Understanding the drivers of community structure, however, is an essential point for increasing our knowledge regarding ecological phenomena involved in RKN management. In this context, recent studies have been performed on culti- vated olives with the aim of finding the important factors influencing RKN population dynam- ics [18, 19]. Although both these studies suggested that the presence of RKN species could be determined by human activities (i.e. widespread introductions from nurseries), they also found habitat factors driving the distribution of RKNs among cultivated Moroccan olives [18, 19].

  • 433 Among Other Nematodes, Root-Knot Specimens Were Collected from Wheat Ro.Ots Var. Capeiti, C38290. They Were Identified As M
    SHORT COMMUNICATIONS 433 Among other nematodes, root-knot specimens were collected from wheat ro.ots var. Capeiti, C38290. They were identified as M. artiellia Franklin, 1961. This root-knot nematode was first reported and described from England on cabbage grown in sandy loam in Norfolk. Other hosts noted by Franklin are oats, barley, wheat, kale, lucerne, pea, ciover and broad bean. All stages off the nematode were found. Second stage larvae were collected from soil samples and from egg masses. Males were found partly or completely within root tissue producing small knots of abnormal, dark coloured cells (Fig. 3), and were .often seen near or around the partly embedded females. The mature females were flask or pear-shaped with neck tapering t.o a small head, and smooth, rounded posterior part with terminal vulva and annulated region around the tail. The perineal patterns were similar to those described by Franklin (1961) and Whitehead (1968) for artiellia (Figs. 1, 2).

ABSTRACT: The accurate identification of root-knot nematode (RKN) species (Meloidogyne spp.) is essential for implementing management strategies. Methods based on the morphology of adults, isozymes phenotypes and DNA analysis can be used for the diagnosis of RKN. Traditionally, RKN species are identified by the analysis of the perineal patterns and esterase phenotypes. For both procedures, mature females are required. Over the last few decades, accurate and rapid molecular techniques have been validated for RKN diagnosis, including eggs, juveniles and adults as DNA sources. Here, we emphasized the methods used for diagnosis of RKN, including emerging molecular techniques, focusing on the major species reported in Brazil. Key words: DNA, esterase, Meloidogyne, molecular biology, morphological pattern.

  • ABSTRACT SCHWARZ, TANNER. Distribution
    ABSTRACT SCHWARZ, TANNER. Distribution, Virulence, and Sweetpotato Resistance to Meloidogyne enterolobii in North Carolina. (Under the direction of Dr. Eric Davis). Meloidogyne enterolobii is an aggressive root-knot nematode (RKN) species that has been detected in North Carolina (NC) within the last decade. Its ability to infect a wide range of host plants and overcome root-knot nematode resistance genes has threatened economic crop production. In collaboration with the North Carolina Department of Agriculture (NCDA) Nematode Assay Lab, DNA from RKN samples from economic crops grown in the eastern-half of North Carolina were analyzed by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) to assay for the presence of M. enterolobii. This species was detected in Columbus, Sampson, Harnett, Johnston, Wayne, Greene, Wilson, and Nash counties in this survey. Three populations of M. enterolobii from NC sweetpotato farms, and one population from a NC soybean farm have been cultured on roots of greenhouse tomato plants (Lycopersicon lycopersicum L.). A study to assess potential differences in virulence among the four cultured North Carolina populations of M. enterolobii on six selected sweetpotato [Ipomoea batatas (L.) Lam.] genotypes found no difference in virulence among the four populations of M. enterolobii that were tested. Potential resistance to M. enterolobii in 91 selected sweetpotato genotypes was evaluated in greenhouse experiments. Genotype susceptibility to M. enterolobii was assessed as the number of nematode eggs per gram of root. Sweetpotato genotype was significantly different (P ˂ 0.001) for gall rating, total eggs, and eggs per gram of root based on mean separations, and based upon Fisher’s LSD t test (alpha=.05), sweetpotato genotypes that supported 500 eggs/gram root or less were classified as resistant to M.

Discovered on cucumber roots, glasshouse in England History of root‐knot nematodes 1) 1887 – Brazilian scientist (Goeldi) observed root-knot nematodes in coffee, coined the name Meloidogyne (Gr. = honey + female), 2) Goeldi named nematode as Meloidogyne exigua, the coffee root-knot nematode. 1887 – 1949 – Several names applied to these nematodes that induced galls on plant roots: Ditylenchus Anguillula Heterodera radicicola Heterodera marioni 1889 – Neal and Atkinson were the first scientists to report root-knot nematodes in North America. As scientists began to dig deeper into rkn, many variants discovered, referred to as “races” Why identify root-knot nematodes Nonchemical tactics for management, e.g., host resistance or crop rotation are becoming more important in agriculture.
