Resistance to Meloidogyne spp. in commonly used resistant grape rootstocks is slightly compromised at soil temperatures above 27°C. Newly released UCD-GRN series rootstocks, which have broad nematode resistance, exhibit trace infections by Meloidogyne spp. at elevated temperature. Pathotypes of M. incognita and M. arenaria that are virulent on 'Harmony' rootstock, as well as M. incognita Race 3...

Three described species of root-knot nematode parasitize peanut (Arachis hypogaea): Meloidogyne arenaria race 1 (Ma), M. hapla (Mh), and M. javanica (Mj). Peanut cultivars with broad resistance to Meloidogyne spp. will be useful regardless of the species present in the field. The objective of this study was to determine whether peanut genotypes with resistance to M. arenaria originating from th...

In this study, it was attempted to determine the resistance of different tomato lines spotted wilt virus (TSWV), yellow leaf curl (TYLCV), and root-origin nematodes (Meloidogyne spp.) using molecular DNA markers. For purpose, out 96 be tested, Sw5-2 for ripening Ty3P6-25 (TYLCV) marker Mi23, which determines root-knot spp.), were used by PCR. Ty3P6-25, that TYLCV, found susceptible (rr) in 34 l...

Harmony grape rootstock displays resistance to several Meloidogyne spp. but that resistance is not durable in commercial vineyard settings. A 2-year experiment in a microplot setting revealed host specificities of two virulent populations of Meloidogyne arenaria and an avirulent population of Meloidogyne incognita. In a subsequent split-root experiment, the avirulent nematode population was dem...

Meloidogyne incognita race 1, M. javanica, M. arenaria race 1, M. hapla, and an undescribed Meloidogyne sp. were analyzed by comparing isozyme phenotypes of esterase, malate dehydrogenase, phosphoglucomutase, isocitrate dehydrogenase, and alpha-glycerophosphate dehydrogenase. Isozyme phenotypes were obtained from single mature females by isoelectric focusing electrophoresis. Of these five isozy...

Vigna unguiculata, Cassia fasiculata, and Sesamum indicum did not support Meloidogyne arenaria, M. incognita, or Heterodera glycines race 4 in greenhouse studies with soils from peanut and soybean fields. Fagopyron eseulentum, Cyamopsis tetragonoloba, and Cucurbita pepo were hosts to the two Meloidogyne spp. but were nonhosts to H. glycines. Meloidogyne arenaria and M. incognita galled but repr...

Isolates of Pasteuria penetrans were evaluated for ecological characteristics that are important in determining their potential as biological control agents. Isolate P-20 survived without loss of its ability to attach to its host nematode in dry, moist, and wet soil and in soil wetted and dried repeatedly for 6 weeks. Some spores moved 6.4 cm (the maximum distance tested) downward in soil withi...

Cortada, L., P. Manzano, F. J. Sorribas, C. Ornat, and S. Verdejo-Lucas. 2010. The resistance response of Solanum huaylasense accession LA1358 to Meloidogyne spp. Nematropica 40:31-40. Pathogenicity tests were performed to determine resistance in the wild tomato Solanum huaylasense to four populations of Meloidogyne spp. The S. huaylasense accession LA1358, the root-knot nematode resistant toma...

The host-parasite relationships of asparagus and Meloidogyne spp. were examined under greenhouse and microplot conditions. Meloidogyne species and races differed greatly in their ability to reproduce on asparagus seedlings. Meloidogyne hapla generally failed to reproduce, and M. javanica, M. arenaria race 1, and M. incognita race 3 reproduced poorly, with a reproduction factor (Rf = final popul...

Sugarcane-associated nematodes (Saccharum spp.) can reduce productivity up to 50%. Through the survey, it was possible identify main that occur in a certain region as tool for designing best management and control strategies. The aim of this study characterize population associated with sugarcane North Central, Pioneiro Northwest mesoregion state Paraná, Brazil, quantify nematode genera crop sp...
