The genome of the migratory nematode, Radopholus similis, reveals signatures of close association to the sedentary cyst nematodes. [PDF]
Radopholus similis, commonly known as the burrowing nematode, is an important pest of myriad crops and ornamentals including banana (Musa spp.) and Citrus spp. In order to characterize the potential role of putative effectors encoded by R.

Phenalenone-type phytoalexins mediate resistance of banana plants (Musa spp.) to the burrowing nematode Radopholus similis. [PDF]
The global yield of bananas, one of the most important food crops is severely hampered by parasites, such as nematodes, which cause yield losses up to 75%.

A Nematode Calreticulin, Rs-CRT, Is a Key Effector in Reproduction and Pathogenicity of Radopholus similis. [PDF]
Radopholus similis is a migratory plant-parasitic nematode that causes severe damage to many agricultural and horticultural crops. Calreticulin (CRT) is a Ca2+-binding multifunctional protein that plays key roles in the parasitism, immune evasion ...

Molecular identification and functional characterization of the fatty acid- and retinoid-binding protein gene Rs-far-1 in the burrowing nematode Radopholus similis (Tylenchida: Pratylenchidae). [PDF]
Fatty acid- and retinoid-binding protein (FAR) is a nematode-specific protein expressed in the nematode hypodermis. It is involved in nematode development, reproduction, and infection and can disrupt the plant defense reaction. In this study, we obtained

Pectate lyase genes from Radopholus similis and their application in pathotype identification. [PDF]
Abstract Radopholus similis is a destructive, migratory, and endophytoparasitic nematode. It has two morphologically indistinguishable pathotypes (or physiological races): banana and citrus pathotypes. At present, the only reliable method to differentiate the two pathotypes is testing the infestation and ...

Water dissemination of Radopholus similis (Cobb) on nitisol in Martinique [PDF]
New cropping systems have been developed in the French West Indies that combine fallow or rotation crops with nematode-free vitro-plants to avoid the repeated applications of nematicides in banana fields.

Cloning and analysis of cathepsin B gene of Radopholus similis
The banana burrowing nematode, Radopholus similis, is a migratory endoparasite plant nematode and severely harms many tropical and subtropical crops. It is the most important invasive species to banana worldwide, and is listed as a quarantine pest in ...

Farming System and Nematodes Affect the Rhizosphere Microbiome of Tropical Banana Plants. [PDF]
The banana crops showed a core microbiome of 77 ASV, mostly belonging to Proteobacteria, Actinobacteria, and Bacilli. Specific groups of bacteria and fungi were linked to each nematode species or feeding group, with a core microbiome of correlated taxa found only when considering nematodes by feeding groups.

Study on burrowing nematode, Radopholus similis, pathogenicity test system in tobacco as host
Radopholus similis (Cobb 1893) Thorne (1949) is a destructive migratory endoparasitic plant nematode. In this study, the pathogenic process of R. similis infection in Nicotiana benthamiana (tobacco) was studied using quartz sand culture in laboratory ...
