Underground Signals: The Ecological Power of Root Volatiles

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Root volatiles mediate rhizosphere chemical communication, shaping interactions among plants, microbes, herbivores, and natural enemies. Their production, transport, and perception underpin ecological adaptation, multitrophic interactions, and plant resilience, offering opportunities for sustainable crop protection, resilient agroecosystems, and ...

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.

EFFECT OF SOME HONEYBEE PRODUCTS ON CONTROL OF ROOT-KNOT NEMATODE, Meloidogyne javanica ON TOMATO PLANTS [PDF]

Journal of Plant Protection and Pathology, 2013
This research work was carried out under greenhouse condition to evaluate three different honeybee products i.e. royal jelly, bee venom and propolis at different concentrations to control root-knot nematode, Meloidogyne javanica, on tomato plants ...

Nematode sperm

Parasitology Today, 1996
Parasitic nematode infections remain a major public health problem in many parts of the world. Because most of the current strategies aimed at controlling parasitic nematode infections have met with only limited success, it may be time to consider alternative approaches.

Nematode survival in relation to soil moisture [PDF]

, 1973
Established nematode populations are very persistent in the soil. It is known that they need sufficient soil moisture for movement, feeding and reproduction (fig. 5), and that there are adverse soil moisture conditions which they cannot survive.

RNAi in the Rhizarian Phytopathogen Plasmodiophora brassicae: The Causal Agent of Clubroot Disease in Cruciferous Crops

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study uncovers an unusual RNAi pathway in the rhizarian pathogen Plasmodiophora brassicae. In the absence of Dicer, a Drosha‐like RNase III protein supports the biogenesis of predominant 21‐nt small RNAs, and two Argonaute proteins mediate small RNA‐guided silencing.

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.

Nematicidal activity of plant extracts against the root-knot nematode, Meloidogyne incognita [PDF]

, 2009
Nematicidal activity of extracts from plants was assayed against Meloidogyne incognita. In laboratory assays extracts from tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum L), clove (Syzygium aromaticum L), betelvine (Piper betle L), and sweet flag (Acorus calamus L) were ...

An Artificially Selected Cytokinin‐Pathway Transcription Factor Balances Soybean Yield and Pathogen Resistance

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A cytokinin pathway transcription factor, RR2b, was artificially selected during soybean domestication and improvement based on its differential transcriptional activity, which correlates with ATT repeat polymorphisms in its promoter. RR2b balances yield and defense by fine‐tuning its expression level and offers a promising target for decoupling trade ...
