Differences in parasitism of root-knot nematodes (Meloidogyne spp.) on oilseed radish and oat

Figures & Tables

Figure 1:

Gall and egg formation of Meloidogyne javanica (A and B), M. incognita race 3 (C and D), and M. arenaria race 1 (E and F) on cultivars of oilseed radish, white (Tachiibuki) and black (Pratex) oats under greenhouse conditions. Tomato cv. Rutgers was used as a susceptible host. Gall severity was assessed based on a scale 0 to 5 where 0 = no galls, and 5 ≥ 100 galls on roots. Data are the mean of two trials with ten replicates. Bars with the same letter(s) are not significantly different based on the Tukey’s test.

Figure 2:

Representative images of roots of oilseed radish cv. Eco-Till (A) and oat cv. Pratex (B) infected with Meloidogyne arenaria at 28 days after inoculation.

Figure 3:

Hematoxylin-Eosin stained cross sections of root tissues of oilseed radish cv. Carwoodi (A) and Eco-Till (B) infected with Meloidogyne incognita at 28 days after inoculation. N, female nematode; GC, giant cell.

Figure 4:

Cross sections of root tissues of oat cv. Pratex (A) and Tachiibuki (B) infected with Meloidogyne javanica at 28 days after inoculation. N, female nematode; GC, giant cell.

Number of second-stage juveniles (J2), and young and adult (egg-laying) females of Meloidogyne spp_ in roots of oilseed radish (Eco-Till, susceptible; Carwoodi, resistance) at early-stage of infection (1, 3, and 5 days after inoculation; DAI) and at 28 DAI in the greenhouse_
