The native microbiome of the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans: gateway to a new host-microbiome model

BMC Biology, 2016
Host-microbe associations underlie many key processes of host development, immunity, and life history. Yet, none of the current research on the central model species Caenorhabditis elegans considers the worm’s natural microbiome.

Improved phylogenomic sampling of free-living nematodes enhances resolution of higher-level nematode phylogeny

BMC Evolutionary Biology, 2019
Nematodes are among the most diverse and abundant metazoans on Earth, but research on them has been biased toward parasitic taxa and model organisms. Free-living nematodes, particularly from the clades Enoplia and Dorylaimia, have been underrepresented ...

Long-term nitrogen addition shifts the soil nematode community to bacterivore-dominated and reduces its ecological maturity in a subalpine forest

Soil Biology and Biochemistry, 2019
Nitrogen deposition from anthropogenic sources is a global problem that reaches even the most remote ecosystems. Responses belowground vary by ecosystem, and have feedbacks to geochemical processes, including carbon storage. A long-term nitrogen addition

Characterization of soil nematode communities in three cropping systems through morphological and DNA metabarcoding approaches

Scientific Reports, 2018
We used complementary morphological and DNA metabarcoding approaches to characterize soil nematode communities in three cropping systems, conventional till (CT), no-till (NT) and organic (ORG), from a long-term field experiment.

Genome sequence of the metazoan plant-parasitic nematode Meloidogyne incognita

Nature Biotechnology, 2008
Plant-parasitic nematodes are major agricultural pests worldwide and novel approaches to control them are sorely needed. We report the draft genome sequence of the root-knot nematode Meloidogyne incognita, a biotrophic parasite of many crops, including ...

Integrating quantitative morphological and qualitative molecular methods to analyse soil nematode community responses to plant range expansion

, 2018
Below‐ground nematodes are important for soil functioning, as they are ubiquitous and operate at various trophic levels in the soil food web. However, morphological nematode community analysis is time consuming and requires ample training.

Exosomes secreted by nematode parasites transfer small RNAs to mammalian cells and modulate innate immunity

Nature Communications, 2014
In mammalian systems RNA can move between cells via vesicles. Here we demonstrate that the gastrointestinal nematode Heligmosomoides polygyrus, which infects mice, secretes vesicles containing microRNAs (miRNAs) and Y RNAs as well as a nematode Argonaute

Paddy field conversion to apple orchards reshapes soil nematode communities and ecosystem sustainability in the Kashmir valley

Discover Environment
The widespread transformation of paddy fields into apple orchards in the Kashmir Valley has prompted significant shifts in above-ground vegetation, which may, in turn, influence the below-ground soil biodiversity-a key indicator of soil health.

Coelomocytes: Biology and Possible Immune Functions in Invertebrates with Special Remarks on Nematodes

International Journal of Zoology, 2009
All metazoans are exposed to a wide range of microbes and have evolved complex immune defenses used to repel infectious agents. Coelomocytes play a key role in the defense reactions of most invertebrates.
