Saltwater intrusion is a potential risk damaging crop diversity and productivity due to degraded soil physicochemical properties. However, little known about how salinity affects the structure function of nematodes community in intensive rice cultivated area. This study aimed (1) assess impacts saltwater on nematode alluvial acid sulfate soils; (2) evaluate its relation with conditions. reduced...

Soils collected from 28 canola fields in Malkara, Süleymanpaşa, Muratlı, Hayrabolu, and Ergene districts of Tekirdağ were examined for the determination nematode fauna. In soils taken 0-60 cm depth each field, genera nematodes recovered by modified Baermann Funnel method. Of these, eight bacterivores, three fungivores, five omnivores, predators, rest plant-parasitic species. Nematodes survey ar...

abstract in order to identify of plant parasitic nematodes of rapeseed in isfahan and fars provinces, 208(96 from esfahan and 112 from fars province) soil and root samples were collected from rapeseed fields during 2005-2007. nematodes were extracted from root and soil , then fixed and transferred to glycerin. the nematodes were mounted on slides and examined by light microscope and identified ...

Abstract Magoebaskloof is an evergreen mountainous landscape covered with Afromontane forests. During a survey on soil nematode diversity, the samples were collected from rhizosphere of forest tree (no cultivation over 50 years), grassland, prepared kiwi land, oak tree, kiwifruits trees (37-year-old), and 8-year-old kiwifruit in Limpopo Province, South Africa. Overall, results showed that total...

This work has studied for the first time the structure and diversity of plant-parasitic nematodes (PPNs) infesting olive orchard soils in a wide-region in Spain that included 92 locations. It aims at determining which agronomical or environmental factors associated to the olive orchards are the main drivers of the PPNs community structure and diversity. Classical morphological and morphometric ...
