Plant-parasitic nematodes are major constraints to sugarcane production worldwide (Ramouthar and Bhuiyan, 2018). In Australia, plant-parasitic nematodes cause 5 to 20% yield loss per year, costing over $80 million in productivity (Blair and Stirling, 2007). The most important nematodes of sugarcane in Australia are root-lesion nematode (Pratylenchus zeae) and root-knot nematode (Meloidogyne javanica). Meloidogyne javanica is primarily abundant in sandy soil and can cause significant yield loss

Root-knot nematode disease has dramatically impacted Morus alba L. production in Japan, India, and Brazil (Hida and Zhu, 1985; Sujathamma et al., 2014; Paestakahashi et al., 2015). According to Wang and Chen (1989a, 1989b), root-knot nematodes cause mulberry leaf loss of 20 to 45%, with severe cases reaching over 75% in some fields (Wang and Chen, 1989a, 1989b). Leaf quality can also be negatively impacted by this pathogen. Root-knot nematodes on mulberry in Japan have previously been

The peach root-knot nematode, Meloidogyne floridensis, is recognized as an emerging pathogen of commercial peach production because of its capability to overcome root-knot nematode resistance in rootstocks. This nematode was first described in Florida where it was found in 16 counties (Brito et al., 2015; Brito pers.comm). Although it was reported to infect peaches in 1966, the peach root-knot nematode was only described as a new species in 2004 (Handoo et al., 2004). In Florida, M. floridensis

Meloidogyne mali (Itoh et al., 1969) is a root-knot nematode (RKN) causing significant damage by inducing root galls on its host plant and consequently reduced host growth by interfering with the uptake of water and nutrients. M. mali has a wide host range, typically on trees, but can also parasitize on shrubs and herbaceous plants (Ahmed et al., 2013).
M. mali was first described in Japan in 1969, with the type host apple (Malus domestica Borkh.) (Itoh et al., 1969). In 2000, a root-knot

Nematodes are important parasites of crops. The economic losses caused by nematodes worldwide exceed 157 billion US dollars annually (Abad et al., 2008). Root-knot nematodes have a wide host range and are especially harmful to plants in the Cucurbitaceae and Solanaceae (Nicol et al., 2011). Tomato is extensively cultivated worldwide and highly susceptible. When the southern root-knot nematode (RKN) Meloidogyne incognita infects tomato, the second-stage juveniles (J2) penetrate young roots

Indeed, the high degree of genetic diversity among the Pakistani isolates relative to other regions suggests Pakistan as a possible ancestral area for the Asian isolates of this species (Figure 6).
Our results confirmed that all Pakistani sequenced isolates of root-knot nematode collected from rice were M. graminicola. The populations are quite morphologically homogeneous, with only slight

Abstract: The bacterium Pasteuria penetrans is a parasite of root-knot nematodes (Meloidogyne spp.). Endospores of P. penetrans attach to the cuticle of second-stage juveniles (J2) and subsequently sterilize infected females. When encumbered by large numbers of spores, juveniles are less mobile and their ability to infect roots is reduced. This study looked at different factors that influence spore attachment of P. penetrans to the root-knot nematode Meloidogyne arenaria. Pretreatment of J2

Lavender species, L. spica L. was inoculated with M. arenaria (Neal, 1892; Chitwood, 1949) and was a suitable host for this root-knot nematode (Moreno et al., 1990). However, there is no report on root-knot nematodes infecting lavender in Turkey.
In 2019, a survey was carried out in the lavender growing areas in Kırklareli and Edirne provinces of Turkey. The roots of lavender plants with symptoms of stunting were observed and examined

Meloidogyne enterolobii is one of the most important root-knot nematode in tropical regions, due to its ability to overcome resistance mechanisms of a number of host plants. The lack of new and safe active ingredients against this nematode has restricted control alternatives for growers. Egg-parasitic fungi have been considered as potential candidates for the development of bionematicides. In tissue culture plates, Pochonia chlamydosporia (var. catenulata and chlamydosporia) and

influenced due to the attack by several pathogens, such as bacteria, fungi, viruses, nematodes, and abiotic factors. Plant parasitic nematodes are the most harmful pests of vegetable crops, responsible for an annual yield loss amounting to 9 to 15% of the world crop yield (Koenning et al., 2004). Among all the plant parasitic nematodes, root-knot nematodes (Meloidogyne spp.) are a hidden threat to okra (Marin et al., 2017). It has been reported that root-knot nematode causes annual losses up to 29% in

The southern root-knot nematode, Meloidogyne incognita (Kofoid and White) Chitwood, is widely distributed across the southern USA. In the Southern High Plains of Texas, M. incognita infested 40 to 50% of the cotton fields (Starr et al., 1993; Wheeler et al., 2000). In the absence of nematode management tactics, it is estimated that M. incognita reduces yield in the west Texas area by an average of 26% (Orr and Robinson, 1984). Management options for this nematode include crop rotation

Neem is a perennial plant of family Meliaceae grown very commonly in India. During a survey in Rajasthan, India; a population of root-knot nematode was found in association with tender neem plants causing yellowing, stunting, and heavy root galling. Inspection of the perineal pattern morphology of the adult females, extracted from the galled roots, primarily led to identification of the species as Meloidogyne indica. Further, detailed morphological and morphometric illustrations of second-stage

Discussion
Terpenes constitute the largest class of secondary metabolites in the plant kingdom (Dudareva et al., 2006) and they possess nematicidal activity against Meloidogyne and other important phytonematodes (Echeverrigaray et al., 2010; Nasiou and Giannakou, 2017, 2018). In this work, we investigated the nematicidal activity of eugenol found as main constituent of clove essential oil, against the root knot nematode M. javanica. Our results showed

Plant-parasitic nematodes cause significant damage in tropical and subtropical agriculture. Among them, the Meloidogyne species, also known as root-knot nematode, affect agricultural production (Jones et al., 2011). The biggest problem in areas infested with these nematodes is the difficulty of managing and controlling them. Many nematicidal products have been withdrawn from the market due to their high toxicity to human beings and the environment (Sousa et al., 2015). Consequently, there is an

Those plants that were homozygous were advanced to the BC1F6 stage through repeated generations of self-pollination. The size of the introgression from Honey Drip in each line was determined in the BC1F6 generation by using five markers, RKNP17, RKNP135, RKNP342, RKNP402, and RKNP529 (Table 3, Supplementary Table 1) that span the root-knot nematode
