serological relationship of meloidogyne incognita and m. arenaria.eight to ten precipitin bands were formed in a double immunodiffusion system comparing antigens of adult females of meloidogyne incognita and m. arenaria. most of the precipitin bands, based on band position and coalescence, were common to both species. antiserum specific for m. incognita was prepared by cross absorption. two populations of m. incognita were serologically identical, whereas two populations of m. arenaria differed slightly with respect to one weak precipitin band.197219319255
influence of temperature on embryogenesis in meloidogyne javanica.the optimum temperature for embryogenesis in meloidogyne javanica lies between 25 and 30 c. embryogenesis is slightly more rapid at 30 c (9-10 days), but more eggs complete development at 25 c (11-13 days). at temperatures of 25, 27.5, and 30 c, embryogenesis is about twice as rapid as at 20 c (23-25 days), and about four times as rapid as at 15 c (46-48 days). time-lapse studies showed that the thermal optimum is similar throughout the different stages of embryonic development.197219319268
changes in the ultrastructure of the gelatinous matrix of meloidogyne javanica during dehydration.the fine structure of the gelatinous matrix of meloidogyne javanica in both moist and dry states was studied by means of chemical fixation and thin sectioning techniques and the freeze-etch method. the matrix consists of an irregular meshwork when hydrated and a uniform granular mass of much greater density when dehydrated. the spaces in the hydrated meshwork are presumed to contain water. the change from a hydrated to a dehydrated state is accompanied by an overall shrinkage and hardening of th ...197219319261
races of the barley root-knot nematode, meloidogyne naasi. iii. reproduction and pathogenicity on creeping bentgrass.reproduction and pathogenicity of the five known races of meloidogyne naasi on two selections of creeping bentgrass were compared. toronto c-15 was a host for races 3, 4 and 5, whereas northmoor 9 supported reproduction of all five races. differences in susceptibility and population increase demonstrated that the races could be separated by degree of reproduction on the two selections. root weights generally were unaffected. based on cumulative dipping weights, all but race 1 were pathogenic on ...197319319296
races of the barley root-knot nematode, meloidogyne naasi. ii. developmental rates.the developmental rates of the five newly designated races of meloidogyne naasi were compared on barley, oat and sorghum. races 1, 2, 3 and 4 developed and reproduced on both barley and oat but not on sorghum. race 5 developed and reproduced readily on sorghum but poorly on oat. a more rapid rate of development of race 5 on both barley and sorghum than that of other races on barley demonstrated that race 5 has a shorter life cycle than do races 1-4.197319319295
races of the barley root-knot nematode, meloidogyne naasi. i. characterization by host preference.the host preferences of populations of meloidogyne naasi from england, california, illinois, kentucky and kansas were compared. among 22 plant species tested, most were hosts for isolates of all five populations; crabgrass was added to the list of known hosts. differential reactions of isolates on creeping bentgrass, curly dock, sorghum, and common chickweed demonstrated the existence of at least five physiological races within m. naasi. the known races are numerically designated and characteriz ...197319319294

theratromyxa weberi, an amoeba predatory on plant-parasitic nematodes.theratromyxa weberi, an amoeba, was isolated and cultured in the laboratory to determine the physical conditions that influence its predation on plant parasitic nematodes. in greenhouse tests, the amoeba was a poor biological control agent of the root-knot nematode, meloidogyne incognita.197319319347
hatching of meloidogyne incognita eggs in the neutral carbohydrate fraction of root exudates of gnotobiotically grown alfalfa.meloidogyne incognita eggs were hatched in soil sterilized by gamma kradiation and wetted with root exudates from alfalfa plants in different stages of development and subjected to various levels of clipping. carbohydrate components of the exudates were identified by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. although significant stimulation of hatch was detected in exudates of seedling and flowering plants, the practical importance of the increase is doubtful as hatch in distilled water was always g ...197319319320
fine structure of cephalic sense organs in meloidogyne incognita males.amphids, and the cephalic and labial papillae of meloidogyne incognita males were examined in detail by electron microscopy. each amphid basically consists of an amphidial gland, a nerve bundle and an amphidial duct. the gland is a broad microvillous organ with a narrow anterior process, which is closely associated with the amphidial duct. a posterior process of the gland contains secretory organelles and proceeds along the esophagus with the lateral cephalic nerve bundle. the nerve bundle penet ...197319319352
resistance to meloidogyne hapla in peanut.two hundred thirty-five cultivated varieties, breeding lines and plant introductions of arachis hypogaea and 12 accessions of wild arachis spp. were tested for resistance to meloidogyne hapla. eight of the cultivated peanut lines were only moderately susceptible and four of the wild peanuts exhibited resistance. no resistance-breaking m. hapla populations were found among 10 geographical isolates tested.197319319351
effect of temperature on growth, development and reproduction of meloidogyne hapla in lettuce.temperature was an important factor in growth, development and reproduction of meloidogyne hapla in lettuce. growth, as measured by increase in diameter of females, was not appreciably different at the intermediate (21.1 c night and 26.7 c day) and high (26.7 c night and 32.2 c day) temperature regimes, but was considerably less at the low temperature regime (15.5 c night and 21.1 c day) than at the two higher temperature regimes. second-stage female larvae developed into adults 14 days after in ...197319319319
pathogenicity of meloidogyne hapla to lettuce as affected by inoculum level, plant age at inoculation and temperature.pathogenicity of meloidogyne hapla to lettuce was influenced by inoculum level, age of plant at inoculation and temperature. top weight of 'minetto' lettuce was reduced 32% when 2-week-old lettuce plants were each inoculated with five egg masses. higher inoculum levels did not further decrease top weight significantly. inoculation at seeding reduced top growth more than inoculation of 1-, 2- or 3-week-old seedlings. m. hapla reduced growth more at the intermediate (21.1 c night and 26.7 c day), ...197319319317
phenol accumulation related to resistance in tomato to infection by root-knot and lesion nematodes.host-parasite relationships of meloidogyne incognita acrita and pratylenchus penetrans were compared on three closely related cultivars of tomato: 'nemared', resistant to root-knot nematodes; 'hawaii 7153', moderately resistant; and 'b-5', susceptible. root-knot nematode larvae induced typical galls on the roots of b-5; larvae that entered nemared were walled-off by necrotic cells; both reactions occurred in hawaii 7153. lesion nematodes caused surface lesions which were initially similar on all ...197319319346
relative efficacy of selected volatile and nonvolatile nematicides for control of meloidogyne incognita on tobacco.root-knot nematode control and tobacco yields in plots infested with meloidogyne incognita and treated with the nonvolatile nematicides, aldicarb, mocap (r), or nemacur (r) were greater than those on similar plots treated with volatile nematicides such as dd, dd + mencs, sd14647 or tetrachlorothiophene. root-knot control and tobacco yields in plots treated with carbofuran or dasanit (r) were eqtual to that obtained with dd + mencs, but less than that obtained with the other volatile soil nematic ...197319319289
correlation of tobacco yield, value, and root-knot index with early-to-midseason, and postharvest meloidogyne population densities.certain nematicidal treatments for the control of root knot of tobacco in six field experiments in north carolina were used to determine early, midseason, and postharvest densities of eggs and larvae of meloidogyne spp., postharvest root-knot indices, and crop yield and value. various statistical correlations showed that population densities determined 6-8 wk after transplanting were more indicative of treatment effectiveness than postharvest densities. logarithmic transformation of early and mi ...197419319371
resistance of cotton to the root-knot nematode, meloidogyne incognita.cotton plants resistant to meloidogyne incognita had roots characterized by fewer and smaller galls, and females that produced fewer egg masses containing fewer eggs than did susceptible plants. many galls on resistant roots contained no nematodes at the time of examination. penetration of the resistant cultivar was equal to that of the susceptible cultivar and independent of the number of nematodes in the inoculum. fewer nematodes penetrated resistant or susceptible plants with eight leaves tha ...197419319358

suppression of embryogenesis and hatching in meloidogyne javanica by thermal stress.embryogenes is and hatching of eggs of meloidogyne javanica were suppressed by brief heat treatment (46 c for 10 min). the period of suppression or arrested development differs according to the stage of development of the nematode when heat treatment is applied. the effect on hatching is much more pronounced than on embryogenesis.197419319374
the incorporation of photosynthates by meloidogyne javanica.the root-knot nematode, meloidogyne javanica, incorporated (1)c from its host after exposure of the plant to (1)co. this uptake was relatively slow and was not detected in nematodes exposed to a labelled plant for periods of 2 and 4 h, but was after 24 h. nematodes were grown in plants previously infected at weekly intervals to provide animals at various stages of growth. plants were harvested 24 h after exposure to the label and the rate of incorporation per unit area of nematode was measured. ...197519308142
free amino acids in roots of infected cotton seedlings resistant and susceptible to meloidogyne incognita.quantities of free amino acids in segments of cotton roots resistant and susceptible to meloidogyne incognita were compared. following infection, the root-knot susceptible cultivar, m8, had greater percentage increases of certain individual free amino acids than the resistant cultivar, clevewilt, but the sum total of free amino acids was greatest in the resistant cultivar. more free amino acids were present in infected than in noninfected plants of both cultivars. the overall concn of glycine de ...197519308129
meloidogyne incognita-induced changes in cell permeability of galled roots.electrolyte leakage of meloidogyne incognita-infected and healthy tomato roots was compared by conductivity measurements, and by compartmental analysis using rb. conductivity measurements suggested difference in electrolyte loss from healthy and galled roots. on a percentage basis, a greater rate of efflux occurred for healthy plants, but galled roots contain more electrolytes and may show a larger net loss. compartmental analysis indicated that: (i) the longer half-time for rb loss from vacuole ...197519308167
effect of meloidogyne incognita on selected forest tree species.four or five growth stages of 14 forest tree species were tested for susceptibility to meloidogyne incognita at five inoculum levels. responses ranged from the highly susceptible 'china fir' to immune 'taiwania'. even highly susceptible species became increasingly tolerant at later growth stages, thus root-knot appears to be a greater problem in nurseries than in established forests. heavily suberized cells which restricted nematode development was the predominant host response in norway spruce, ...197519308146
autoradiography of developing syncytia in cotton roots infected with meloidogyne incognita.cotton (gossypium hirsutum) seedlings, uniformly infected with meloidogyne incognita, were exposed for periods of 1-15 days to a nutrient solution containing tritium-labelled thymidine. syncytium formation began with the amalgamation of cells near the nematode head, and was followed by synchronized mitoses of the nuclei which had been incorporated into a single cell. syncytial nuclei synthesized dna in roots harvested 3, 6, 9, 12, and 15 days after inoculation. seedlings transferred from unlabel ...197519308135
interaction of four soybean cultivars with subsoiling and a nematicide.yields of four soybean, glycine max, cultivars were increased with subsoiling under the row and application of the nematicide, dbcp i 1,2-dibromo-3-chloropropane) in tiflon sandy loam heavily infested with the root-knot nematode meloidogyne incognita. these cultivars represent four maturity groups: very early (v), "essex', early (vi), "davis': medium (vii), 'ransom'; and late (viii), ' hutton '. the average increase for the four cullivars was about the same for subsoiling or dbcp. when the treat ...197519308134
pathogenicity of pratylenchus coffeae, scutellonema bradys, meloidogyne incognita, and rotylenchus reniformis on dioscorea rotundata.low populations (200 specimens per plant) of pratylenchus cofl'eae, scutellonema bradys, meloidogyne incognita, and rotylenchulus reniformis stimulated the development of tops, roots, and tubers of dioscorea rotundata "guinea" yam. we demonstrated experimentally that p. coffeae was responsible for the deterioration in quality of the yam tuber in puerto rico, a condition known as a dry rot of yam. initial populations of 600 p. coffeae, s. bradys, or m. incognita, and populations of 1,000 p. coffe ...197519308127
temperature-induced phase transitions in nematode lipids and their influence on respiration.temperature-induced phase transitions estimated by electron spin resonance (esr) technique were ohscrved in the lipids of several nematode species. in both meloidogyne javanica and caenorhahditis elegans, there was a phase transition in their phospholipids from a liquid-crystalline state to a solid gel state at about 10 c. aphelenchus avenae also had a phase transition, but at about 20 c. with this species, the spin-label motion parameters indicated the transition was from the liquid-crystalline ...197519308140
body wall fine structure of the anterior region of meloidogyne incognita and heterodera glycines males.the body wall fine structure including the cuticle, hypodermis, and somatic muscles is similar in males of meloidogyne incognita and heterodera glycines. the cuticle can be regarded as basically three-layered in both species, but is much thicker in m. incognita than in h. glycines, and differences occur in surface markings. the chordal and interchordal hypodermis is syncytial. hypodermal tissue pervades the lip region, and lines the stomatal cavity and stylet shaft. various organelles and struct ...197519308152
influence of meloidogyne incognita on the content of amino acids and nicotine in tobacco grown under gnotobiotic conditions.seedlings of meloidogyne incognita-resistant (n.c. 95) and -susceptible (mcnair 30) tobacco cultivars were grown aseptically for 55 days inside isolator chambers in autoclaved soil infested with 0 or 3,000 axenized eggs of m. incognita per 500 cc of soil. healthy and infected plants were compared. dry root weights of infected plants of resistant and susceptible cultivars were 16% and 84%, respectively, less than the controls. sixteen amino acids, including those precursors for nicotine, and nico ...197519308177
effects of aldicarb on the behavior of heterodera schachtii and meloidogyne javanica.the toxic effects of sublethal concentrations of aldicarb were studied on eggs and second-stage larvae and males of heterodera schachtii and second-stage larvae only of meloidogyne javanica in a quartz sand substrate. aldicarb was more toxic to eggs of h. schachtii than to those of m. javanica. complete suppression of hatching occurred between 0.48 and 4.8 microg/ml aldicarb for h. schachtii whereas 100% inhibition of hatch of m. javanica occurred between 4.8 and 48.0 microg/ml. m. javanica hatc ...197519308160
self-interactions of meloidogyne hapla and of heterodera schachtii on beta vulgaris.double inoculations of sugar beet with larvae of meloidogyne hapla resulted in a higher galling incidence in only one treatment than did a single inoculation using the same number of larvae. double inoculations with larvae of heterodera schachtii, however, resulted in three- to five-fold more cysts in most cases than did single inoculations using the same number of larvae. in general, plants died more quickly after double inoculations than after single inoculations of the same total number of ei ...197619308195
influence of pratylenchus vulnus and meloidogyne hapla on the growth of rootstocks of rose.pratylenchus vulnus is involved in a desease of rosa noisettiana 'manetti' rose rootstock characterized by darkening of roots, death of feeder roots, and stunting of entire plants. the disease is more severe when plants are grown in silt loam soil than when they are grown in sandy loam soil. the nematodes reproduce best in silt loam soil at 20 c. meloidogyne hapla did not affect the growh of manetti. rosa sp.

penetration and development of meloidogyne hapla in resistant and susceptible alfalfa under differing temperatures.studies were conducted to examine under differing temperatures (12, 16, 20, 24, 28, and 32 c) the penetration anti development of meloidogyne hapla in resistant lines '298' and 'nev. syn xx', and susceptible 'lahontan' and 'ranger' hardy-type alfalfas. the results indicated that resistance to m. hapla was similar to that previously described for m. incognita in nonhardy alfalfa. although initial penetration in resistant seedlings was similar to that of susceptible seedlings, nematode larvae fail ...197719305571
effects of population densities of meloidogyne hapla on growth and yield of tomato.growth and yield of 'veebrite' tomato were studied in 20-cm (i.d.) clay-tile microplots containing initially 260, 1,840, 6,120, or 27,950 meloidogyne hapla larvae/kg of soil. low nematode numbers stimulated, and the highest nematode population suppressed, vegetative plant growth. more tomatoes, with a higher total weight, were harvested from plants infested with 260 and 1,840 nematode larvae at planting than from those with initial densities of 6,120 and 27,950 larvae. at the two highest densiti ...197719305611
infectivity of bacillus penetrans in plant-parasitic nematodes.larvae of meloidogyne spp. were readily infected with the endoparasite bacillus penetrans by exposure to an aqueous suspension of spores from infected root-knot nematode females, or by passage of larvae through a shallow layer (50 cm(3)) of spore-infested soil. infection severely reduced motility of second-stage larvae through soil. bacillus penetrans exhibited a distinct host specificity in that only 5 of 16 nematode species tested became infected with the population used. meloidogyne javanica, ...197719305569
effects of management practices on nematode and fungi populations and okra yield.okra was grown in field plots of tifton loamy sand naturally infested with the nematodes meloidogyne incognita and criconemoides ornalus and the pathogenic fungi fusarium oxysporum, f. solani, f. roseum, and pythium spp. plots were treated with various soil pesticides and left exposed or covered with biodegradable paper film mulch under trickle irrigation. soil was assayed for nematodes and fungi, and plant roots were examined for root-rot and insect damage. fewer nematodes and fungi generally w ...197719305580
influence of soil fumigation on the fusarium-root-knot nematode disease complex of cotton in california.for control of the root-knot nematode, meloidogyne incognita, and the pathogenic wilt fungus, fusarium oxysporum, on cotton, soil fumigants were applied in the field at conventional and higher rates. conventional rates suppressed fusarium wilt but higher rates gave quicker early growth, better stands, less stand loss over the season, a lower percentage of plants infected with wilt, fewer plants with vascular discoloration, and fewer nematodes. the best treatment about doubled the yields of untre ...197819305846
early stages of nematode-induced giant-cell formation in roots of impatiens balsamina.giant cells induced in roots of impatiens balsamina by meloidogyne javanica and meloidogyne incognita have been examined by light and electron microscopy. the first sign of giant-cell formation was division of cells surrounding a larva. cell plate alignment appeared to proceed normally, but cytokinesis was unsuccessful and binucleate cells formed subsequently. no wall breakdown was evident then or later. the number of nuclei appeared to increase by repeated mitosis without separation by cytokine ...197819305816
reaction of citrus rootstocks to meloidogyne javanica.the response of citrus spp. and related rootstocks to a population of meloidogyne javanica was evaluated in a screenhouse experiment. palestine and rangpur lime, rough lemon, sour orange, sexton and thentriton tangelo, and volkamer lemon were not infected by m. javanica. galls and tip swellings were observed on the roots of poncirus triloliata and troyer citrange. there was no evidence of nematode development. symptoms induced by the nematode were stelar division, syncytia formation in the vascu ...197819305835
meloidogyne grahami n. sp. (meloidogynidae), a root-knot nematode on resistant tobacco in south carolina.meloidogyne grahami n. sp. is described and illustrated from specimens on tobacco (nicotiana tabacum) originally from florence, south carolina. considered for several years to be only a race of m. ineognita, this new species readily attacks nc-95 tobacco, a variety with resistance to the m. incognita group that is common in the major u.s. tobacco-producing areas. m. grahami n. sp. is related most closely to the three subspecies of the m. incognita group but differs from all of them, especially i ...197819305866
ontogeny of daucus carota infected with meloidogyne hapla.the ontogeny of carrots (daucus carota cv. 'spartan premium') grown under greenhouse conditions in pots of organic soil infected with meloidogyne hapla was influenced detrimentally as early as 4 days after seeding, as determined through analysis of plant surface area, dry weight, fresh weight, net assimilation rate, relative growth rate, and leaf-area ratio. only 58% of the diseased carrots were suitable for fresh market, compared with 97% of those grown in nematode-free soil. growth and develop ...197819305837
root-knot nematodes and the process of ageing in plants.infection of plants by root-knot nematodes is often accompanied by physiological changes characteristic of ageing. ultra-low tissue luminescence of infected plants indicated oxidation of cell-membrane lipids. cells with membranes subjected to oxidation lose some of their capacity for water retention. treating tomato and radish with lidocaine hydrochloride, an inhibitor of lipid oxidation, retarded above-ground symptoms of root-knot nematode infection and of ageing.197819305822
influence of chilling and freezing temperatures on infectivity of meloidogyne incognita and m. hapla.egg masses and second-stage larvae of meloidogyne incognita and m. hapla in soil were exposed to temperatures ranging from 20 to -8 c. temperature was lowered in 2-day intervals to 16, 12, 8, 4, 0, -4, and -8 c, and the nematodes remained at 4, 0, -4, or -8 c for 18, 14, 10, or 6 days, respectively. unhatched larvae of both species were more resistant to low temperatures than were embryonic stages. within the eggs of m. incognita, 7.5% of embryos and 48% of larval stages survived 14 days at 0 c, ...197819305834
anatomical response of grain sorghum roots to meloidogyne incognita acrita.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 nematode invasion. large areas of these tissues were absent for one-third of the circumference of the stele ...197819305813
influence of low temperature on development of meloidogyne incognita and m. hapla eggs in egg masses.egg masses of meloidogyne incognita and m. hapla were placed in soil at 10, 12, 16, and 20 c. at regular intervals, eggs from samples of egg masses were released from the gelatinous matrices and their developmental stages recorded. the number of days necessary to complete each stage from gastrulation to hatch is given for each temperature. the minimal temperature threshold for the development of eggs was computed by linear regression to be 8.26 c for m. incognita and 6.74 c for m. hapla.197819305859
temperature-based prediction of egg-mass production by meloidogyne incognita.a maturation-rate relationship for meloidogyne incognita on lycopersicon esculentum 'rutgers' was derived and used to estimate harvest dates for maximum egg hatch from laboratory cultures at ambient temperatures. daily maturation increments were totaled (nematode maturation total, nmt) and correlated with hatch from isolated white, yellow, and amber egg masses. hatch per mass fluctuated periodically from ca. 1.0 nmt, when egg masses were first visible, to 2.5 nmt by which time plants showed stre ...197819305857
