Figures & Tables

Figure 1:

Micrograph of parameters used to differentiate between intact and damaged Heterodera gycines and Globodera ellingtonae eggs. A) 4′,6-diamidino-2-phenylindole (DAPI) stained eggs viewed under the Echo Revolve fluorescent microscope; B) Bright field view with the Olympus microscope; C) Tetramethylrhodamine-5-(and 6)-isothiocyanate (TRITC) view with the Olympus microscope; and D) Fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC) view with the Olympus microscope (ie = intact eggs, de = damaged eggs, and j2 = second-stage juveniles).

Effect of fungal filtrates on A) Heterodera glycines and B) Globodera ellingtonae eggs. Bars within a nematode species followed by the same letter are not significantly different from each other (P ≥ 0.05). Control (CTRL), Fusarium acaciae-mearnsii (JB201), Purpureocillium lilacinum (JB209), Trichoderma virens (JB98), Alternaria tenuissima (JB217), Aureobasidium sp. (JB70), and Fusarium proliferatum (JB173).
