Low abundance of phytophagous nematodes under invasive exotic Pinus elliottii – enemy release and plant–soil feedbacks

New Phytologist, Volume 249, Issue 6, Page 3060-3071, March 2026.
Summary According to the enemy release hypothesis (ERH), the fitness of exotic plants and their capacity to become invasive in their area of introduction may partly be attributable to the loss of their natural enemies. Invasive species may also benefit from modifying soil attributes and thereby creating a positive soil–plant feedback.

Superoxide Dismutase as a Tool for the Mulacular Identification of Plant Parasitic Nematodes

Phytopathologia Mediterranea, 2004
Superoxide dismutase (SOD) is a constitutive family of enzymes produced by all aerobic organisms. Varying amounts of SOD activity have been found at all life stages of the most diffused plant parasitic nematodes.

Insights Into Virus‐Encoded RNA Silencing Suppressors Across Viral Families: A Focus on Viruses Infecting Solanaceae Crops

Physiologia Plantarum, Volume 178, Issue 2, March/April 2026.
ABSTRACT Viral suppressors of RNA silencing (VSRs) are proteins that interfere with antiviral defense mechanisms and enhance infection. For plant viruses, VSRs can be encoded in viral genomes and satellite molecules and play an important role in the virus's life cycle and in overcoming host defenses.

Host Status of Brazilian Native Tree Species to Root‐Knot Nematodes

Forest Pathology, Volume 56, Issue 1, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Root‐knot nematodes (RKN, Meloidogyne spp.) are among the most important plant pathogenic organisms, causing significant damage, with a wide geographical distribution and being difficult to control. The ability of these nematodes to parasitize native trees from Brazilian biomes is little understood.

Xiphinema index and its Relationship to Grapevines: A review

, 2016
The dagger nematode, Xiphinema index, is considered a major pest in grape growing countries. Xiphinemaindex is especially important because of its ability to transmit Grapevine fanleaf virus when feeding ongrapevine roots.
