Smart Parasitic Nematodes Use Multifaceted Strategies to Parasitize Plants
Nematodes are omnipresent in nature including many species which are parasitic to plants and cause enormous economic losses in various crops. During the process of parasitism, sedentary phytonematodes use their stylet to secrete effector proteins into the plant cells to induce the development of specialized feeding structures. These effectors are used by the nematodes to develop compatible inte...
متن کاملParasitic nematodes - from genomes to control.
The diseases caused by parasitic nematodes in domestic and companion animals are major factors that decrease production and quality of the agricultural products. Methods available for the control of the parasitic nematode infections are mainly based on chemical treatment, non-chemical management practices, immune modulation and biological control. However, even with integrated pest management t...
متن کاملNuclear receptors in parasitic nematodes
Introduction One of the most prevalent classes of parasitic organisms is the helminth (parasitic worms), which collectively infect more than 1 billion people worldwide and cause a range of maladies including malnutrition, growth and mental retardation, disfigurement and physical disabilities, and death (1). Helminths that infect humans are generally considered to comprise two major phyla: Nemat...
متن کاملUse of Molecular Biological Methods to Identify Plant Parasitic Nematodes Associated with Sugarcane in South Africa
Plant parasitic nematode genera commonly found associated with sugarcane were collected from trial sites in various regions of the sugar industry. Nucleic acids were extracted and the rDNA internal transcribed spacer 1 (ITS1) region amplified. Identification of the important genera was possible by size differentiation of the amplification products. Sequencing of the ITS1 region was used to conf...
متن کاملBreeding plants for resistance to nematodes.
Plant breeders and nematologists have developed improved cultivars of important crop species with resistance to plant-parasitic nematodes. The effectiveness of these breeding efforts has depended on the availability of efficient screening procedures, identification of adequate sources of durable resistance, nature of the nematode feeding habit, and knowledge of the inheritance of resistance. Th...
