Overman and Woltz (3) indicated that amino acid antimetabolites applied to tile soil suppressed reproduct ion of Paratrichodorus minor (Trichodorus christiei) and root galling caused by Meloidogyne incognita on tomatoes. Eight DL-amino acid antimetabolites similarly decreased the population of Aphelenchoides ritzemabosi on Lucerne, whereas DL-alanine suppressed the populat ion of Heterodera spp...

Potato Genebank of the Universidad Austral de Chile (UACh) is an important gene bank in Chile. The accessions collected all over the country possess high genetic diversity, present interesting agronomic and cooking traits, and show resistance to biotic and abiotic stress. A particularly interesting subgroup of the gene bank includes the accessions collected in the South of Chile, the Chilota Po...

The effective management of cyst nematodes requires accurate assessments of the species composition and size of field populations. Compared to traditional diagnostics the polymerase chain reaction offers high specificity, sensitivity and a more rapid means of identifying large numbers of cyst nematode samples. PCRRFLP of the ITS I ribosomal DNA region from Heterodera and Globodera species produ...

Potato cyst nematodes (PCN) collected in six localities in the Leningrad region of North West Russia were identified as Globodera rostochiensis pathotype Ro1 and were used for subsequent resistance tests. Seventynine accessions of cultivated and closely related wild potato species from the VIR collection in Russia were screened on resistance to G. rostochiensis pathotype Ro1 and on the presence...

Cysteine proteinases from the fruit and latex of plants, such as papaya, pineapple and fig, have previously been shown to have substantial anthelmintic efficacy, in vitro and in vivo, against a range of animal parasitic nematodes. In this paper, we describe the in vitro effects of these plant extracts against 2 sedentary plant parasitic nematodes of the genera Meloidogyne and Globodera. All the...

Fructose-bisphosphate aldolase (EC 4.1.2.13) is a key enzyme in glycolysis. We have characterized full-length coding sequences for aldolase genes from the cyst nematodes Heterodera glycines and Globodera rostochiensis, the first for any plant-parasitic nematode. Nucleotide homology is high (83% identity), and the respective sequences encode 40 kDa proteins with 89% amino acid identity. Genomic ...

The potato cyst nematodes Globodera pallida and G. rostochiensis are economically important plant pathogens causing losses to UK potato harvests estimated at £50 m/ year. Implications of climate change on their future pest status have not been fully considered. Here, we report growth of female G. pallida and G. rostochiensis over the range 15 to 25°C. Females per plant and their fecundity decli...
