چکیده

Negative charges on the outer cuticular surface of Meloidogyne javanica females were visualized with electron microscope labelling techniques. Evidence is presented that the electronegative charge is not borne on neuraminic acid. Ruthenium red staining indicated acid mucopolysaccharides on the outer surface. A surface coat, or glycocalyx, external to the outer cuticle membrane was demonstrated.

Infectivity of Bacillus penetrans in plant-parasitic Nematodes.

Larvae of Meloidogyne spp. were readily infected with the endoparasite Bacillus penetrans by exposure to an aqueous suspension of spores from infected root-knot nematode females, or by passage of larvae through a shallow layer (50 cm(3)) of spore-infested soil. Infection severely reduced motility of second-stage larvae through soil. Bacillus penetrans exhibited a distinct host specificity in th...

Characterization of sialyl and galactosyl residues on the body wall of different plant parasitic nematodes.

The plant parasitic nematodes Helicotylenchus multicinctus, Meloidogyne javanica, Tylenchulus semipenetrans, and Xiphinema index, differing in their host specificity and parasitic habits, were analyzed as to their cuticle surface sialyl, galaclosyl, and/or N-acetylgalactosaminyl residues. The procedure involved the selective oxidation of sialic acid and galactose/N-acetylgal-actosamine residues...

Fatty Acid-and Retinol-Binding Protein, Mj-FAR-1 Induces Tomato Host Susceptibility to Root-Knot Nematodes

Plant-parasitic nematodes produce at least one structurally unique class of small helix-rich retinol- and fatty-acid-binding proteins that have no counterparts in their plant hosts. Herein we describe a protein of the plant-parasitic root-knot nematode Meloidogyne javanica, which is a member of the nematode-specific fatty-acid- and retinol-binding (Mj-FAR-1) family of proteins. The mj-far-1 mRN...

Interaction of Meloidogyne javanica with Different Races of Meloidogyne incognita.

The interspecific interactions of Meloidogyne javanica with races 1, 2, 3, and 4 of M. incognita on tomato were determined. Impacts of the interactions on fecundity and morphometrics of females were also examined. Mutually inhibitory interactions occurred between M. javanica and the races of M. incognita, but the negative interactions did not reflect in plant growth. Numbers of root galls, egg ...

Meloidogyne javanica on Peanut in Florida.

A mixed population of Meloidogyne arenaria race 1 and M. javanica race 3 is reported on peanut from a field in Levy County, Florida. Confirmation of M. javanica on peanut is based on esterase and malate dehydrogenase isozyme patterns resolved on polyacrylamide slab gels following electrophoresis, and perineal patterns. Up to 29% of 290 individual females collected from peanut roots in the field...
