Richards2 and J. Antonio Baeza2,3,4* Abstract Background: The plant-parasitic nematode Hoplolaimus columbus is a pathogen that uses a wide range of hosts and causes substantial yield loss in agricultural felds in North America. This study describes, for the frst time, the complete mitochondrial genome of H. columbus from South Carolina, USA. Methods: The mitogenome of H. columbus was assembled from Illumina 300 bp pair-end reads. It was annotated and compared to other published mitogenomes of plant-parasitic nematodes in the superfamily Tylenchoidea. The phylogenetic relationships between H. columbus and other 6 genera of plant-parasitic nematodes were examined using protein-coding genes (PCGs). Results: The mitogenome of H. columbus is a circular AT-rich DNA molecule 25,228 bp in length. The annotation result comprises 12 PCGs, 2 ribosomal RNA genes, and 19 transfer RNA genes. No atp8 gene was found in the mitog- enome of H. columbus but long non-coding regions were observed in agreement to that reported for other plant- parasitic nematodes. The mitogenomic phylogeny of plant-parasitic nematodes in the superfamily Tylenchoidea agreed with previous molecular phylogenies. Mitochondrial gene synteny in H. columbus was unique but similar to that reported for other closely related species. Conclusions: The mitogenome of H. columbus is unique within the superfamily Tylenchoidea but exhibits similarities in both gene content and synteny to other closely related nematodes.

  • Phylogenetic Implications of Phasmid Absence in Males of Three Genera in Heteroderinae 1 L
    Journal of Nematology 22(3):386-394. 1990. © The Society of Nematologists 1990. Phylogenetic Implications of Phasmid Absence in Males of Three Genera in Heteroderinae 1 L. K. CARTA2 AND J. G. BALDWINs Abstract: Absence of the phasmid was demonstrated with the transmission electron microscope in immature third-stage (M3) and fourth-stage (M4) males and mature fifth-stage males (M5) of Heterodera schachtii, M3 and M4 of Verutus volvingentis, and M5 of Cactodera eremica. This absence was supported by the lack of phasmid staining with Coomassie blue and cobalt sulfide. All phasmid structures, except the canal and ampulla, were absent in the postpenetration second-stagejuvenile (]2) of H. schachtii. The prepenetration V. volvingentis J2 differs from H. schachtii by having only a canal remnant and no ampulla. This and parsimonious evidence suggest that these two types of phasmids probably evolved in parallel, although ampulla and receptor cavity shape are similar. Absence of the male phasmid throughout development might be associated with an amphimictic mode of reproduction. Phasmid function is discussed, and female pheromone reception ruled out. Variations in ampulla shape are evaluated as phylogenetic character states within the Heteroderinae and putative phylogenetic outgroup Hoplolaimidae. Key words: anaphimixis, ampulla, cell death, Cactodera eremica, Heterodera schachtii, Heteroderinae, parallel evolution, parthenogenesis, phasmid, phylogeny, ultrastructure, Verutus volvingentis.

    STUDIES ON THE COPULATORY BEHAVIOUR OF THE FREE-LIVING NEMATODE PANAGRELLUS REDIVIVUS (GOODEY, 1945). by C.L. DUGGAL M.Sc. (Hons. School) Panjab University A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the University of London Imperial College Field Station, Ashurst Lodge, Sunninghill, Ascot, Berkshire. September 1977 2 AtSTRACT The copulatory behaviour of Panagrellus redivivus is described in detail and an attempt is made to relate copulation with the age and reproductive state of the nematodes. Male P. redivivus show both pre- and post-insemination coiling around the female and they use their spicules for probing and for opening the female gonopore. Morphological studies on the spicules have been made at both the light microscope level and the scanning electron microscope level in order to understand their functional importance during copulation. The process of insemination has been studied in some detail and the morphological changes occurring in the sperm during their migration from the seminal vesicle to the seminal receptacle have been recorded. It was found that during migration the sperm formed long chains by attaching themselves anterio-posteriorly, each sperm producing pseudopodial-like projections. The frequency of copulation in the male nematodes and its influence on the number of sperm produced and on the nematode life- span was examined, and compared with the development and longevity of aging virgin males. The number of sperm shed into the uterus of the female at the time of copulation was found to increase with increasing intervals between copulations. Similar observations were also made on the life-span and oocyte production in copulated and virgin females.

The factors influencing the multiplication rate and the effects of anhydrobiosis were studied for H. dihysr.era and H. mullicinclus in the laboratory and showed that absence of H. mullicinClus from semi-arid tropics of West Africa might be explained by the effects ofhigh soil temperature on multiplication rate and low survival rate after soil desiccation during the dry season. The field and laboratory observations showed that anhydrobiosis might induce a strong effeet on the physiology of H. dihyslera, nematode numbers being higher after soil desiccation during the dry season.

  • Morphological Comparison and Taxonomic Utility of Copulatory Structures of Selected Nematode Species 1
    Journal of Nematology 19(3):314-323. 1987. © The Society of Nematologists 1987. Morphological Comparison and Taxonomic Utility of Copulatory Structures of Selected Nematode Species 1 ABDALLAH RAMMAH ~ AND HEDWIG HIRSCHMANN 3 Abstract: Spicules of 9 Meloidoffyne, 2 Heterodera, 3 Globodera, and 12 other plant-parasitic, insect- parasitic, and free-living nematodes were excised and examined using scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Gubernacula of some of the species were also excised, and their structure was determined. The two spicules of all species examined were symmetrically identical in morphology. The spicule typically consisted of three parts: head, shaft, and blade with dorsal and ventral vela. The spicular nerve entered through the cytoplasmic core opening on the lateral outer surface of the spicule head and generally communicated with the exterior through one or two pores at the spicule tip. Spicules ofXiphinema sp. and Aporcelaimellus sp. were not composed of three typical parts, were less sclerotized, and lacked a cytoplasmic core opening and distal pores. Spicules of Aphelenchoides spp. had heads expanded into apex and rostrum and had very arcuate blades with thick dorsal and ventral edges (limbs). Gubernaculum shapes were stable within a species, but differed among species examined. The accessory structures of Hoplolaimus galeatus consisted of a tongue-shaped gubernaculum with two titillae at its distal end and a plate-like capitulum terminating distally in two flat, wing-like structures. A comparison of spicules of several species of Meloidogyne by SEM and light microscopy revealed no striking morphological differences. Key words: spicule, gubernaculum, capitulum, titillae, scanning electron microscopy, light mi- croscopy, Aphelenchoides, Aporcelaimel~us, Belonolaimus, Dolichodorus, Globodera, Heterorhabditis, Het- erodera, Hoplolaimus, Meloidogyne, Mesorhabditis, PanagreUus, Tylenchorhynchus, Xiphinema.

Biodiversity Data Journal 3: e6523. doi: 10.3897/BDJ.3.e6523 ZooBank: urn:lsid:zoobank.org:pub:E1697C01-66CB-445B-9B70-8FB10AA8C37E Abstract Background The genus Hoplolaimus Daday, 1905 belongs to the subfamily Hoplolaimine Filipiev, 1934 of family Hoplolaimidae Filipiev, 1934 (Krall 1990). Daday established this genus on a single female of H. tylenchiformis recovered from a mud hole on Banco Island, Paraguay in 1905 (Sher 1963, Krall 1990). Hoplolaimus species are distributed worldwide and cause damage on numerous agricultural crops (Luc et al. 1990Robbins et al. 1998). In 1992, Handoo and Golden reviewed 29 valid species of genus Hoplolaimus Dayday, 1905 (Handoo and Golden 1992). Siddiqi (2000) recognised three subgenera in Hoplolaimus: Hoplolaimus (Hoplolaimus) with ten species, is characterized by lateral field distinct, with four incisures, excretory pore behind hemizonid; Hoplolaimus ( Basirolaimus) with 18 species, is characterized by lateral field with one to three incisures, obliterated, excretory pore anterior to hemizonid, dorsal oesophageal gland quadrinucleate; and Hoplolaimus (Ethiolaimus) with four species is characterized by lateral field with one to three incisures, obliterated; excretory pore anterior to hemizonid, dorsal oesophageal gland uninucleate (Siddiqi 2000).
