First report of Mesocriconema xenoplax (Nematoda: Criconematidae) from turfgrass in Portugal and in Europe [PDF]
In Winter 2016, root and soil samples were collected from the rhizosphere soil at 10 to 15 cm depth of turfgrass, in the yard of a complex of houses in Caxias, a region near Lisbon, Portugal.

Phylogenetic analysis of entomoparasitic nematodes, potential control agents of flea populations in natural foci of plague. [PDF]
Entomoparasitic nematodes are natural control agents for many insect pests, including fleas that transmit Yersinia pestis, a causative agent of plague, in the natural foci of this extremely dangerous zoonosis. We examined the flea samples from the Volga‐Ural natural focus of plague for their infestation with nematodes.

Modern nematode-resistant varieties of potatoes in the conditions of the North
Golden potato nematole (Globodera rostochiensis Woll.) is a phytoparasite, a microscopic worm that causes potato globoderosis. As a result, the yield is sharply reduced, small tubers are formed, and then the complete death of plants. The damage caused by

Energy and physiological tolerance explain multi‐trophic soil diversity in temperate mountains
Abstract Aim Although soil biodiversity is extremely rich and spatially variable, both in terms of species and trophic groups, we still know little about its main drivers. Here, we contrast four long‐standing hypotheses to explain the spatial variation of soil multi‐trophic diversity: energy, physiological tolerance, habitat heterogeneity and resource ...

Summary Parasites have evolved proteins, virulence factors (VFs), that facilitate plant colonisation, however VFs mediating parasitic plant–host interactions are poorly understood. Striga hermonthica is an obligate, root‐parasitic plant of cereal hosts in sub‐Saharan Africa, causing devastating yield losses.

PPNEMA: A Resource of Plant‐Parasitic Nematodes Multialigned Ribosomal Cistrons
Plant‐parasitic nematodes are important pests of crop plants worldwide, and also among the most difficult animals to identify. Their identification based on nuclear ribosomal DNA (rDNA) cistron (18S, 28S, and 5.8S RNA genes, and internal transcribed spacers, ITS1 and ITS2) is becoming a popular tool.

Activity of Satureja montana Allelochemical Volatiles Against the Pinewood Nematode
Essential oils (EOs) are complex mixtures of mainly volatile terpenes and phenylpropanoids with strong biological activities. Screening their nematicidal activity against plant parasitic nematodes can yield important information on anti-nematodal ...
