intra-species dna polymorphism in the tobacco cyst-nematode complex (globodera tabacum) using aflp.amplified fragment length polymorphism (aflp) was used to obtain information on the within-species genetic variability of the tobacco cyst-nematode (tcn) complex. aflp was found to be well suited to this type of study. the current classification of tcn was confirmed. results indicate that the globodera tabacum solanacearum group, believed to be restricted to the u.s.a., also occurs in mexico. the within-species variability of tcn is considerable. populations from mexico may form a new subgroup. ...200111768220
induction patterns of an extensin gene in tobacco upon nematode infection.when sedentary endoparasitic nematodes infect plants, they induce complex feeding sites within the root tissues of their host. to characterize cell wall changes induced within these structures at a molecular level, we studied the expression of an extensin gene (coding for a major structural cell wall protein) in nematode-infected tobacco roots. extensin gene expression was observed to be induced very early upon infection. this induction was weak, transient, and probably due to wounding during pe ...199312271052
morphological and molecular identification of globodera pallida associated with potato in idaho.the identity of a newly discovered population of pale potato cyst nematode globodera pallida associated with potato in eastern idaho was established by morphological and molecular methods. morphometrics of cysts and second-stage juveniles were generally within the expected ranges for g. pallida with some variations noted. the idaho population and paratype material from epworth, lincolnshire, england, both showed variations in tail shape, with bluntly rounded to finely pointed tail termini. compa ...200719259482
