Investigating Root-Knot and Soybean Cyst Nematode Parasitic Interactions Through Transcriptomic Analyses of the Host and Parasite Investigating Root-Knot and Soybean Cyst Nematode Parasitic Interactions through Transcriptomic Analyses of the Host and Parasite DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Ellie Walsh Graduate Program in Plant Pathology The Ohio State University 2016 Dissertation Committee: Professor Christopher G. Taylor, Advisor Professor Thomas Mitchell Professor Terry Niblack Professor Margaret Redinbaugh Copyrighted by Ellie Kathleen Walsh 2016 Abstract Plant-parasitic nematodes are a major threat to global agricultural production. Root-knot nematodes (RKN, Meloidogyne spp.) are arguably the biggest threat, capable of parasitizing virtually every crop. Soybean cyst nematode (SCN; Heterodera glycines) has a narrow host range, but is the most destructive pathogen of a particularly important crop, soybean (Glycine max). RKN’s wide host range makes crop rotation often inadequate for management, and host resistance is unavailable in many crops. Effective resistance is available against SCN however populations have adapted to the most frequently used sources of resistance. RKN and SCN both induce elaborate feeding sites. In addition to being the sole source of nutrition, the feeding sites are the primary targets of nematode secretions to manipulate host cellular functions; consequently, they are very important interfaces of the interaction. The general aim of this research was to elucidate changes in the transcriptome underlying the successful interaction between these nematodes and their hosts. Although the use of RNA interference (RNAi) to knockdown nematode genes is actively being pursued as a new strategy for nematode control, little is known about the effects of general RNAi mechanisms during parasitism. As the suppression of RNAi has been characterized in other pathosystems, I hypothesized that parasitic nematodes may also be influencing these pathways. Tanscriptomic analysis of genes associated with RNAi machinery and target genes indicates that RNAi-regulated pathways are altered during the parasitic interaction. Using a silenced reporter gene, I found the disturbance to be specific to the nematode feeding site. Furthermore, disrupting these pathways with viral suppressors of RNAi renders the host more susceptible to nematode parasitism. Transcriptomic analysis indicates that this effect extends into later stages in parasitism, making the adult female stage of particular interest for further analyses. ii I performed a transcriptomic analysis of adult female M. incognita to address the hypothesis that transcriptional patterns in this later stage of parasitism will reveal new candidate genes encoding proteins that regulate the parasitic process, such as proteins that interact with RNAi among other plant pathways. Results from RNA-Seq analysis and reverse transcriptase PCR indicate that cell wall modifiers likely continue to play an important role in the parasitic interaction. Results from transcriptomic analysis including the putative secretome have highlighted new candidates for functional analysis to determine their role in the interaction. The later stage in parasitism is similarly of interest in SCN. SCN populations are adapting to the most commonly planted host resistance available in soybean, derived from Plant Introduction (PI) 88788 and “Peking.” The resistance response in PI 88788 appears to be longer-lasting than that in Peking, which impacts nematodes’ early development. Due to my focus on the adult female stage, I chose to investigate parasitism on PI 88788. I hypothesize that transcriptional differences between females from populations avirulent and virulent on PI 88788 may play a role in their adaptation to resistance. Results from this study indicate that the expression of an effector-like gene may have been lost in virulent populations, presumably allowing them to evade host detection and subsequent defense responses. iii Acknowledgements The research detailed herein would not have been possible without a lot of guidance and support. I have been very fortunate to work in the Department of Plant Pathology at The Ohio State University, which houses amazing faculty, fellow students, and staff. I would like to specifically acknowledge those individuals that have directly impacted this body of work. Therese Miller – the “mother of nematodes,” and Bob James – the greenhouse keeper contributed significantly to the success of experiments. My College of Wooster advisee, Allison Grenell, both executed experiments, and was instrumental to my own growth as a scientist and as a teacher; it is difficult to say who mentored whom. Numerous postdoctoral scientists have shared their time to teach me, namely Drs. Bryan Cassone, Gina Pengue, Phanikanth Turlapati, Yuhong Li, and Linjian Jiang. I am also indebted for the tremendous efforts of Monica Lewandowski, Lynn West, Ken Nanes, Niqui Beckrum, and Ramona Powell in handling graduate school logistics, likely more so than I will ever fully realize. I would also like to thank all of my committee members for their support, unwavering confidence in me, and tremendous patience. Finally, I would like to express my gratitude and admiration for my major advisor, Dr. Christopher G. Taylor. His ability to convey his passion for research inspired me to pursue this degree and his guidance and relentless encouragement have allowed me to see it to completion. iv Vita 2008....................................................B.S.

    Chapter 6 Engineered Soybean Cyst Nematode Resistance Vincent P. Klink, Prachi D. Matsye, Katheryn S. Lawrence and Gary W. Lawrence Additional information is available at the end of the chapter http://dx.doi.org/10.5772/54514 1. Introduction A variety of plant parasitic nematodes (PPNs), including the soybean cyst nematode (SCN), elicit the initiation, development and maintenance of a specialized nurse cell from which they derive their nutriment (Figure 1). Remarkably, during parasitism by the PPN, the nurse cell survives the apparently significant resource drain on the root cell that would be expect‐ ed to detrimentally impact normal physiological processes of the cell. This outcome indi‐ cates that the nematode has developed a well tuned apparatus to ensure that the root cell does not collapse and die during parasitism. In contrast, in the soybean-SCN pathosystem, the nurse cell and sometimes the surrounding cells are the sites of the defense response to the parasite (Ross, 1958; Endo, 1965). Therefore, plants have in place a mechanism to over‐ come the influence of the activities of the nematode. Identifying the factor(s) is of utmost im‐ portance in developing resistance to PPNs. 1.2. History Documented accounts reveal that soybean has been in cultivation for thousands of years (Hymowitz et al. 1970), beginning in Asia perhaps as early as 3,500 B.C. (Liu et al. 1997). While the natural range of soybean is East Asia, after thousands of years of cultivation a true understanding of its native range is complicated at best. However, the extensive range of wild soybean and obvious differences in its growth habit indicates that while environmental cues may be responsible for changes in soybean and plant growth habit in general (Garner Allard 1930; Chapin III et al.

  • Allele-Specific Expression of Ribosomal Protein Genes in Interspecific Hybrid Catfish
    Allele-specific Expression of Ribosomal Protein Genes in Interspecific Hybrid Catfish by Ailu Chen A dissertation submitted to the Graduate Faculty of Auburn University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Auburn, Alabama August 1, 2015 Keywords: catfish, interspecific hybrids, allele-specific expression, ribosomal protein Copyright 2015 by Ailu Chen Approved by Zhanjiang Liu, Chair, Professor, School of Fisheries, Aquaculture and Aquatic Sciences Nannan Liu, Professor, Entomology and Plant Pathology Eric Peatman, Associate Professor, School of Fisheries, Aquaculture and Aquatic Sciences Aaron M. Rashotte, Associate Professor, Biological Sciences Abstract Interspecific hybridization results in a vast reservoir of allelic variations, which may potentially contribute to phenotypical enhancement in the hybrids. Whether the allelic variations are related to the downstream phenotypic differences of interspecific hybrid is still an open question. The recently developed genome-wide allele-specific approaches that harness high- throughput sequencing technology allow direct quantification of allelic variations and gene expression patterns. In this work, I investigated allele-specific expression (ASE) pattern using RNA-Seq datasets generated from interspecific catfish hybrids. The objective of the study is to determine the ASE genes and pathways in which they are involved. Specifically, my study investigated ASE-SNPs, ASE-genes, parent-of-origins of ASE allele and how ASE would possibly contribute to heterosis. My data showed that ASE was operating in the interspecific catfish system. Of the 66,251 and 177,841 SNPs identified from the datasets of the liver and gill, 5,420 (8.2%) and 13,390 (7.5%) SNPs were identified as significant ASE-SNPs, respectively.

    Evaluating Seed Treatments for the Management of Soybean Cyst Nematode (Heterodera glycines Ichinohe) in Dry Bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) by Trust T. Katsande A Thesis presented to The University of Guelph In partial fulfilment of requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Plant Agriculture Guelph, Ontario, Canada © Trust T. Katsande, September, 2019 ABSTRACT Evaluating Seed Treatments for the Management of Soybean Cyst Nematode (Heterodera glycines Ichinohe) in Dry Bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) Trust T. Katsande Advisor: University of Guelph, 2019 Chris L. Gillard Soybean cyst nematode (Heterodera glycines; SCN) infestation is a major cause of yield loss in soybean (Glycine max), and dry bean (Phaseolus vulgaris) is an alternative host. In soybean, genetic resistance and seed treatments are mainly used for SCN management however these options are not available in dry bean. Seven seed treatments were assessed for effects on SCN populations in black (cv. Zorro) and kidney (cv. Dynasty; Red Hawk) bean. Two field studies were conducted in 2018 on naturally infested soils near Highgate and Rodney, Ontario. In addition, two different controlled environment studies were completed. There was little treatment response in field studies. In the first controlled environment study, Bacillus amyloliquefaciens and Bacillus firmus reduced cysts in black and kidney bean while fluopyram reduced cysts in Red Hawk only. In second study, fluopyram reduced cysts by 50% and 88% in Dynasty and Red Hawk, respectively while other treatments were inconsistent. iii DEDICATION This dissertation is dedicated to my caring and loving parents Michael and Sarudzai Katsande, my brothers Austin and Omega for their endless support.

Free-living bacteriophagous nematodes (FLBNs) in 18 the genus Oscheius, often found in soils, can interfere in EPN reproduction when exposed to live 19 insect larvae. Both groups of nematodes can act as facultative scavengers as a survival strategy. 20 Our hypothesis was that EPNs will reproduce in insect cadavers under FLBN presence, but their 21 reproductive capacity will be severely limited when competing with other scavengers for the same 22 niche. We explored the outcome of EPN - Oscheius interaction by using freeze-killed larvae of 23 Galleria mellonella. The differential reproduction ability of two EPN species (Steinernema 24 kraussei and Heterorhabditis megidis), single applied or combined with two FLBNs (Oscheius 25 onirici or Oscheius tipulae), was evaluated under two different infective juvenile (IJ) pressure: 26 low (3 IJs/host) and high (20 IJs/host).

  • Summary Paratrichodorus Minor Is a Highly Polyphagous Plant Pest, Generally Found in Tropical Or Subtropical Soils
    CSL Pest Risk Analysis for Paratrichodorus minor copyright CSL, 2008 CSL PEST RISK ANALYSIS FOR Paratrichodorus minor Abstract/ Summary Paratrichodorus minor is a highly polyphagous plant pest, generally found in tropical or subtropical soils. It has entered the UK in growing media associated with palm trees and is most likely to establish on ornamental plants grown under protection. There is a moderate likelihood of the pest establishing outdoors in the UK through the planting of imported plants in gardens or amenity areas. However there is a low likelihood of the nematode spreading from such areas to commercial food crops, to which it presents a small risk of economic impact. P. minor is known to vector the Tobacco rattle virus (TRV), which affects potatoes, possibly strains that are not already present in the UK, but the risk of the nematode entering in association with seed potatoes is low. Overall the risk of P. minor to the UK is rated as low. STAGE 1: PRA INITIATION 1. What is the name of the pest?

Further detail is given below. After the description of H. tabacum, two other similar cyst nematodes, colloquially referred to as horsenettle cyst nematode and Osbourne's cyst nematode, were later designated by Miller et al. (1962) from Virginia, USA. These cyst nematodes were fully described and named as H. virginiae and H. solanacearum by Miller & Gray (1972), respectively. The type host for these species was Solanum carolinense L.; other hosts included different species of Nicotiana, Physalis and Solanum, as well as Atropa belladonna L., Hycoscyamus niger L., but not S.
