A Repertoire of Major Genes From Crop Wild Relatives for Breeding Disease‐Resistant Wheat, Rice, Maize, Soybean and Cotton Crops

Plant Breeding, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Global food demand is predicted to rise anywhere from 59% to 98% by 2050 because of increasing population. However, the continued depletion of natural resources and increasing biotic and abiotic stresses will continue to pose significant threats to global food security in coming years.

Deciphering Role of Endophytes in Plant Defences and Biotic Stress Resilience Across Families

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Plant families generate distinct repertoires of specialised metabolites that govern their biotic interactions. Endophytes strengthen host plant defence mechanisms and tolerance to biotic challenges by upregulating metabolite biosynthesis, modifying precursor compounds into more potent forms, or by directly synthesising analogous defence ...

A multi-omics approach reveals that the plant-parasitic nematode Globodera pallida can produce the phytohormone auxin IAA

Parasitology
The phytohormone auxin plays a crucial role in the development of so-called syncytia induced by cyst nematodes upon feeding on plant roots. However, it is unknown whether nematode-derived auxin contributes to plant parasitism by cyst nematodes. To do so,

Morphological and physiological variability of species of Meloidogyne in West Africa and implications of their control [PDF]

, 1978
The extreme morphological and physiological variability of certain rootknot nematodes (Meloidogyne spp.) and its implication on the development of control methods of these parasites, based upon crop rotations and the use of resistant varieties of ...

The entomopathogenic nematode Heterorhabditis megidis: host searching behaviour, infectivity and reproduction [PDF]

, 2001
Entomopathogenic nematodes in the families Heterorhabditidae and Steinernematidae have considerable potential as biological control agents of soil-inhabiting insect pests.

Sugars as Central Integrators of Plant Immunity and Stress Responses

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sugars are fundamental metabolites that sustain plant growth and development, but accumulating evidence demonstrates that they also function as regulatory hubs in plant defence. In this review, we synthesise current knowledge on how carbohydrate dynamics coordinate metabolism, signalling, and structural responses to shape plant resistance ...

Effects of Meloidogyne incognita on agronomic parameters and structural changes in eggplant (Solanum gilo Raddi) roots treated with Purpureocillium lilacinum

Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Meloidogyne incognita impairs eggplant growth through gall formation with changes in root cell wall components and vascular tissue disruption, while the biocontrol agent Purpureocillium lilacinum mitigates these effects by reducing nematode infection. Abstract Meloidogyne spp. induce structural changes during the development of root‐knot galls, leading

Nematode community structure in potato fields of Kurdistan province, western Iran

Journal of Crop Protection, 2021
Potato is one of the most important crops produced in Kurdistan province, western Iran. Although several species of plant-parasitic nematodes have been reported in association with these potato fields, no comprehensive nematode community structure has ...

Combined effects of lance nematode populations and use of plant growth regulators on creeping bentgrass putting greens

Crop, Forage &Turfgrass Management, Volume 12, Issue 2, December 2026.
Abstract Plant growth regulators (PGRs) are used to optimize turfgrass growth, reduce management inputs, and potentially mitigate diseases. However, golf course superintendents have reported anecdotal evidence linking increased PGR‐induced phytotoxicity with high populations of lance nematodes (Hoplolaimus galeatus).

Viruses and Antiviral Responses of Nematodes

Frontiers in Bioscience-Landmark
Nematodes are ubiquitous metazoans that occupy diverse ecological niches, exposing them to a wide range of viruses and positioning them as both viral hosts and vectors.
