Morphological Comparison of Head Shape and Stylet Morphology of Second-stage Juveniles of Meloidogyne Species.
نویسنده
چکیده
Head shape and stylet morphology of second-stage juveniles of one population each of M. incognita, M. javanica, M. arenaria, and M. hapla were compared by light microscopy. Excised stylets of each species were also compared by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Differences in head morphology were observed only between M. hapla and the other three species. In SEM, differences in stylet size, shape, and relative distance of the dorsal esophageal gland orifice to the base of the stylet were evident. Differences in stylet morphology between M. incognita and M. javanica could not he detected by light microscopy, but M. arenaria and M. hapla could be distinguished from each other and from the other two species. Head shape and styler morphology of second-stage juveniles are considered useful taxonomic characters.

Morphological Comparison of Seven Hypotriploid Populations of Meloidogyne arenaria with the Typical Triploid Populations.
A morphological comparison of seven hypotriploid populations of Meloidogyne arenaria was made to clarify their taxonomic status, using light and scanning electron microscopy. All populations differed from each other and from the typical triploid M. arenaria by certain features. Differences were not regarded as sufficient to justify recognition of the variants as distinct species. Morphological ...

The development and life stages of Meloidogyne cruciani on tomato was studied at 28 C. Roots of 2-wk-old 'Rutgers' tomato seedlings were exposed to inoculum for 24 h, rinsed, and the seedlings repotted. No major changes in juvenile development were observed prior to 8 days after inoculation. At 11 days the second-stage juvenile had enlarged considerably. The genital primordium had not yet asume...

Morphometric comparisons of two populations each of Races 1 and 2 of Meloidogyne arenaria from tobacco, peanut, and soybean in different localities in Florida showed no significant differences in any characters measured by light microscopy. Thirteen morphometric characters of females, 22 of males, and 21 of infective second-stage juveniles were measured for each population. The stylet length in...

External morphology of second-stage juveniles of six populations of Meloidogyne hapla, hclonging to two cytological races (A and B), and one population each of M. arenaria, M. incognita, and M. javanica was compared by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Race A of M. hapla included three facultatively parthenogenetic populations with haploid chromosome numbers of 15. 16, and 17; race B consiste...

Meloidogyne platani n. sp. is described and illustrated from specimens obtained from roots of American sycamore, Platanus occidentalis, in Virginia. This new species shows certain similarities with M. arenaria but differs from it by a number of distinctive characters. The perineal pattern of females is rounded with fine, wavy to zig-zag striae and raised, convoluted striae in the inner lateral ...
