Neurobiology of plant parasitic nematodes

Invertebrate Neuroscience, 2011
The 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.

Syncytium Induced by Plant-Parasitic Nematodes

2023
Plant-parasitic nematodes from the genera Globodera, Heterodera (cyst-forming nematodes), and Meloidogyne (root-knot nematodes) are notorious and serious pests of crops. They cause tremendous economic losses between US $80 and 358 billion a year. Nematodes infect the roots of plants and induce the formation of specialised feeding structures (syncytium ...

Genome Evolution of Plant-Parasitic Nematodes

Annual Review of Phytopathology, 2017
Plant parasitism has evolved independently on at least four separate occasions in the phylum Nematoda. The application of next-generation sequencing (NGS) to plant-parasitic nematodes has allowed a wide range of genome- or transcriptome-level comparisons, and these have identified genome adaptations that enable parasitism of plants.

RNA interference and plant parasitic nematodes

Trends in Plant Science, 2005
RNA interference (RNAi) has recently been demonstrated in plant parasitic nematodes. It is a potentially powerful investigative tool for the genome-wide identification of gene function that should help improve our understanding of plant parasitic nematodes.

Parasitism proteins in nematode–plant interactions

Current Opinion in Plant Biology, 2008
The current battery of candidate parasitism proteins secreted by nematodes to modify plant tissues for parasitism includes cell-wall-modifying enzymes of potential prokaryotic origin, multiple regulators of host cell cycle and metabolism, proteins that can localize to the plant cell nucleus, potential suppressors of host defense, mimics of plant ...

Parasitic Nematodes, Proteinases and Transgenic Plants

Parasitology Today, 1999
Parasite proteinases have important functions in host-parasite interactions. Consequently, they have been investigated as targets for the control of both plant and animal parasites. Plant parasitic nematodes cause estimated annual losses to world agriculture of US$100 billion and, currently, their control often relies on highly toxic nematicides, with ...
