To concurrently control root-knot nematodes and treat pig manure further clarify the mechanism of anaerobic digestion slurries on nematodes, optimal conditions for producing volatile fatty acids (VFAs) were studied, relationship between carboxyl group in fermentation mortality rate was also researched. When condition parameters set as initial pH=10.0, temperature 25 °C, total solid (TS) loading...

Effectors are specific proteins secreted by nematodes into plant cells that facilitate their parasitism to host plants. Inactivation of these effectors could reduce the parasitic ability on plants and damage caused nematodes. Gene Minc14137encodes an effector unknown function is cloned from Meloidogyne incognita. Artificial microRNAs capable inactivating gene Minc14137 were synthesised inserted...

Nematode were determined in 189 soil and root samples collected from 18 olive nurseries in Golestan province (northern Iran), between 2004 and 2008. which contain eight species belonging to eight grnera The important nematodes detected, in order of decreasing frequency of infestation (percentage of samples), were Aphelenchus avenae, Meloidogyne javanica, Irantylenchus sp., Pratylenchus thornei,...

A 3-year field rotation study was conducted to assess the potential of switchgrass (Panicum virgatum) to suppress root-knot nematodes (Meloidogyne arenaria), southern blight (Sclerotium rolfsii), and aflatoxigenic fungi (Aspergillus sp.) in peanut (Arachis hypogaea L.) and to assess shifts in microbial populations following crop rotation. Switchgrass did not support populations of root-knot nem...

Common wheat is an economically important crop, cultivated mainly for food purposes. During the growing season, crops are exposed to feeding by numerous animal pests: insects, snails and plant parasitic nematodes. Among phytophagous nematodes, cystforming nematodes of genus Heterodera root-knot Pratylenchus recognized as pests crop. Spring observations cultivation common in winter form showed c...

Oryzalin (3,5-dinitro-N4,N4-dipropyl-sulfanilamide) and BAS 083 (l,l-dimethylpiperdinium chloride) reduced root-knot infection in tomato roots when respectively applied as a soil drench at 20 ppm and 10,000 ppm. Oryzalin reduced knot counts with various intervals between treatment and inoculation. BAS 083 reduced knot counts only when applied before inoculation. Oryzalin was shown not to be a c...
