Neurobiology of plant parasitic nematodes
Invertebrate Neuroscience, 2011The regulatory constraints imposed on use of chemical control agents in agriculture are rendering crops increasingly vulnerable to plant parasitic nematodes. Thus, it is important that new control strategies which meet requirements for low toxicity to non-target species, vertebrates and the environment are pursued.

Nanotechnology for parasitic plant control
Pest Management Science, 2009AbstractThe field of nanotechnology opens up novel potential applications for agriculture. Nanotechnology applications are already being explored and used in medicine and pharmacology, but interest for use in crop protection is just starting. The development of nanodevices as smart delivery systems to target specific sites and nanocarriers for ...

Plants that attack plants: molecular elucidation of plant parasitism
Current Opinion in Plant Biology, 2012Obligate parasitic plants in the family Orobanchaceae, such as Striga and Orobanche (including Phelipanche) spp., parasitize important crops and cause severe agricultural damage. Recent molecular studies have begun to reveal how these parasites have adapted to hosts in a parasitic lifecycle.

The Host-Parasite Relationships of Plant-Parasitic Nematodes
1969Publisher Summary This chapter explores the relationship between parasite and potential host prior to the establishment of a feeding site, and describes the different types of nematode–microorganism complexes associated with the host. The basic aspects of host–parasite relationship are considered and the form, mechanism of action, and results of the ...

Endosymbionts of Plant-Parasitic Nematodes
Annual Review of Phytopathology, 2018Some of the most agriculturally important plant-parasitic nematodes (PPNs) harbor endosymbionts. Extensive work in other systems has shown that endosymbionts can have major effects on host virulence and biology. This review highlights the discovery, development, and diversity of PPN endosymbionts, incorporating inferences from genomic data.

Parasitic castration of plants by fungi
Trends in Ecology & Evolution, 1991If the production of genetically variable offspring is a mechanism of host defense against parasites, then parasites capable of suppressing sexual reproduction in hosts may gain a selective advantage over parasites that do not do so. Recent work has shown that a range of systemic fungi infecting plants sterilize their hosts, effectively preventing ...

Biology of Plant-Parasitic Nematodes
The Journal of Parasitology, 1962Areas for future research in culturing, nutrition, and physiology of parasitism of plantparasitic nematodes are discussed. Culturing nematodes monoxenically on plant tissue cultures has been successful with several species, but the ultimate aim is propagation on nonliving media.
