Targeted transcriptomics reveals signatures of large-scale independent origins and concerted regulation of effector genes in Radopholus similis.

PLoS Pathogens, 2021
The burrowing nematode, Radopholus similis, is an economically important plant-parasitic nematode that inflicts damage and yield loss to a wide range of crops.

Yield Increases in Burrowing Nematode-infested Anthurium with Fluopyram and Trifloxystrobin Applications

HortTechnology, 2020
Burrowing nematode (Radopholus similis) causes severe stunting and yield reduction in anthurium (Anthurium andraeanum) cut flower production. Two field trials were conducted at commercial grower farms to test the efficacy of fluopyram or fluopyram ...

Respiratory Infection by Cyathostoma (Hovorkonema) americana in a Population of Burrowing Owls (Athene cunicularia)—A Potential Case of Zoo–Wildlife Cross-Transmission

Journal of Zoological and Botanical Gardens, 2023
A population of burrowing owls (Athene cunicularia) under professional care at Zoomarine Portugal presented with sudden respiratory clinical signs. Clinical management included a thorough diagnosis plan, including in-house fecal analysis that revealed ...

IN VITRO SCREENING FOR ANTHURIUM TOLERANCE TO BURROWING NEMATODE, RADOPHOLUS SIMILIS [PDF]

HortScience, 1996
Burrowing nematode, Radopholus similis , reduces flower-yield-infected anthurium fields. Genetic resistance is one alternative to chemical control of the disease in anthurium. Seventeen commercial anthurium varieties, established in vitro on anthurium nutrient medium, were inoculated with ...

Endophytic Non-Pathogenic Fusarium oxysporum-Derived Dual Benefit for Nematode Management and Improved Banana (Musa spp.) Productivity

Agriculture, 2022
The banana weevil (Cosmopolites sordidus) and the burrowing nematode Radopholus similis represent two of the most important pests of bananas. Previously, colonization of banana plants by the non-pathogenic Fusarium oxysporum (isolate V5w2) and the ...

Control of the banana burrowing nematode using sisal extract [PDF]

Agronomy for Sustainable Development, 2014
The nematode Radopholus similis is a major pest in banana plantations worldwide. This nematode is actually controlled using synthetic, toxic nematicides. Alternative control methods are therefore needed. For instance the liquid by-product of fiber extraction from sisal (Agave sisalana) may be used as a nematicide.

Long‐term cattle grazing shifts the ecological state of forest soils

Ecology and Evolution, 2022
Cattle grazing profoundly affects abiotic and biotic characteristics of ecosystems. While most research has been performed on grasslands, the effect of large managed ungulates on forest ecosystems has largely been neglected.

THE BURROWING NEMATODE OF BANANA: STRATEGIES FOR CONTROLLING THE UNCONTROLLABLE

Acta Horticulturae, 2009
The burrowing nematode of banana, Radopholus similis, is difficult, if not impossible, to control effectively. The lack of resistance in commercially acceptable cultivars and the perennial nature of the crop limit management options. Multiplecycle treatment with systemic nematocides is presently the only effective tool available for reducing damage and

Magnetosensitive neurons mediate geomagnetic orientation in Caenorhabditis elegans

eLife, 2015
Many organisms spanning from bacteria to mammals orient to the earth's magnetic field. For a few animals, central neurons responsive to earth-strength magnetic fields have been identified; however, magnetosensory neurons have yet to be identified in any ...

Parasitism and pathogenicity of Radopholus similis to Ipomoea aquatica, Basella rubra and Cucurbita moschata and genetic diversity of different populations

Journal of Integrative Agriculture, 2016
Ten populations of Radopholus similis from different ornamental hosts were tested for their parasitism and pathogenicity to water spinach (Ipomoea aquatic), malabar spinach (Basella rubra), and squash (Cucurbita moschata) in pots.
