Elevational patterns of soil nematode diversity, community structure and metabolic footprint in the Trikuta mountains of Northwestern Himalaya

open access: yesFrontiers in Forests and Global Change, 2023
Nematodes are an integral part of soil biodiversity and play a vital role in soil nutrient cycling. The Himalayan mountainous ecosystems are amongst the extreme environments in the world.

Structure and evolution of neuronal wiring receptors and ligands

open access: yesDevelopmental Dynamics, Volume 252, Issue 1, Page 27-60, January 2023., 2023
Abstract One of the fundamental properties of a neuronal circuit is the map of its connections. The cellular and developmental processes that allow for the growth of axons and dendrites, selection of synaptic targets, and formation of functional synapses use neuronal surface receptors and their interactions with other surface receptors, secreted ...

Nematodes

open access: yes, 2020
Plant-parasitic nematodes (PPNs) represent an important constraint for plant production worldwide. They are widely distributed around the world and are able to parasitize every plant species. Furthermore, the current restrictions on the use of chemical nematicides have increased the problems caused by PPNs, irrespec-tive of the production system ...

IL‐4/IL‐13‐producing ILC2s are required for timely control of intestinal helminth infection in mice

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Immunology, Volume 52, Issue 12, Page 1925-1933, December 2022., 2022
ILC2‐derived IL‐4/IL‐13 plays a non‐redundant role for eosinophil recruitment to the lung and expulsion of N. brasiliensis worm parasites from the intestine. Abstract Infection of mice with Nippostrongylus brasiliensis (Nb) serves as a model for human hookworm infection affecting about 600 million people world‐wide.

A Multiplex Gene Expression Assay for Direct Measurement of RNA Transcripts in Crude Lysates of the Nematode Caenorhabditis elegans Used as a Bioanalytical Tool

open access: yesEnvironmental Toxicology and Chemistry, Volume 42, Issue 1, Page 130-142, January 2023., 2023
Abstract Gene expression profiling in Caenorhabditis elegans has been demonstrated to be a potential bioanalytical tool to detect the toxic potency of environmental contaminants. The RNA transcripts of genes responding to toxic exposure can be used as biomarkers for detecting these toxins. For routine application in environmental quality monitoring, an

The functional role and diversity of soil nematodes are stronger at high elevation in the lesser Himalayan Mountain ranges

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2021
Soil nematodes are a foremost component of terrestrial biodiversity; they display a whole gamut of trophic guilds and life strategies, and by their activity, affect major ecosystem process, such as organic matter degradation and carbon cycling.

Year-Long Assessment of Soil Nematode Diversity and Root Inhibition-Indicator Nematode Genera in Rice Fields

open access: yesBiology, 2022
Soil nematodes contribute to nutrient cycling. This year-long study aimed to investigate the changes in the diversity of soil nematodes during the spring, summer, and winter seasons in rice fields at 24 sites and to determine the indicator nematode ...

Nematode-Trapping Fungi Eavesdrop on Nematode Pheromones [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Biology, 2013
The recognition of molecular patterns associated with specific pathogens or food sources is fundamental to ecology and plays a major role in the evolution of predator-prey relationships. Recent studies showed that nematodes produce an evolutionarily highly conserved family of small molecules, the ascarosides, which serve essential functions in ...

Two new species of the genus Coomansinema Ahmad and Jairajpuri, 1989 (Nematoda: Dorylaimida) with a key to its species

open access: yesHelminthologia, 2019
Two new species of the genus Coomansinema Ahmad and Jairajpuri, 1989 are described and illustrated. C. japonicum n. sp. is characterized by having medium size body (L= 1.40 – 1.45 mm); lip region truncate with completely amalgamated lips; amphideal fovea

Substratum-dependent moss microhabitat types alter soil nematode community structure in the mixed coniferous forest of Dachigam National Park, Jammu and Kashmir

open access: yesGlobal Ecology and Conservation, 2021
Mosses although lack a proper rhizosphere, and poorly exploit the substratum on which they grow, still play complex role in ecological processes by providing nutrients and shelter to various organisms.
