root-knot nematodes (meloidogyne spp.) are among the most important groups of plant-parasitic nematodes, causing damage and yield losses to most cultivated plants. the bacterium pseudomonas fluorescens cha0 and the fungus trichoderma harzianum bi were investigated for biological control capability and systemic induction of resistance against the nematode m. javanica under glasshouse conditions....

in the course of the present study, samples were taken from the non-defoliant strain of verticillium dahliae (ss-4) from infected olive groves in toshan area in southern gorgan. root-knot nematode, meloidogyne javanica, was recovered from infested olive seedlings and after identification was reaned on tomato seedlings cv. rutgers. during the study, one-year-old seedlings of olive cultivars zard...

root-knot nematodes ( meloidogyne spp.) are important group of plant pathogens that have extensive hosting range and are caused for significant damage to agricultural products annually. various management strategies of control on nematodes has been used, but the application of plant products is one of the promising methods for nematode control. in this study, inhibitory effect of essential oils...

The response of 29 rye, oat, triticale, and wheat cultivars to selected nematode species was determined in the greenhouse. Variability in nematode root galling and final nematode population densities in root and soil in response to cool season annual graminaceous crops occurred for spiral (Helicotylenchus dihystera), stubby root (Paratrichodorus minor), and root-knot (Meloidogyne incognita) nem...

Twelve soil drenches over a period of 30 days with DBCP concentrations of 40 microg/ml did not completely prevent infection of tomato plants by root-knot nematode juveniles. Repeated DBCP drenches of 40 microg/ml halted gall development during the drenches, but 10 days after drenching was discontinued galls were apparent. DBCP drenches at 200 microg/ml prevented tomato root development, and 40 ...

The cotton root-knot nematode, Meloidogyne incognita acrita, reproduced on the roots of grain sorghum, causing syncytia in the cortex or stele of lateral roots. Giant cells developed either singly with few nuclei or in groups with many nuclei. Giant cells that developed in groups appeared the same as those which developed singly. The pericycle and endodermis were interrupted at the site of nema...

The aim of this review was to undertake a survey of researchers working with plant-parasitic nematodes in order to determine a 'top 10' list of these pathogens based on scientific and economic importance. Any such list will not be definitive as economic importance will vary depending on the region of the world in which a researcher is based. However, care was taken to include researchers from a...

in this study, high biocontrol potentially bacillus isolates, against root knot nematode were evaluated from viewpoint of biofilm formation and root colonization in vitro. among 139 bacillus isolates from tomato rhizosphere of several regions of razavi khorasan, 15 strains which show more ability to prevent egg hatch and cause larvae mortality of meloidogyne javanica, were tested in biofilm ass...

Perla, David E. M.S., Purdue University, August, 2014. Management of Root Knot Nematode (Meloidogyne incognita) in Indiana Soybeans. Major Professors: Ricky Foster and Virginia Ferris. The aim of this project was to evaluate different strategies for management of Root Knot Nematode (RKN) on soybean and tomato in Indiana. Seed treatments were evaluated under field and greenhouse conditions, but ...
