Modes of action associated with microbially induced in planta suppression of plant-parasitic nematodes

Modes of action associated with microbially induced in planta suppression of plant-parasitic... This article discusses the extensive research that has been conducted on the use of mutualistic bacterial and fungal endophytes for the biological control of plant-parasitic nematodes. This review deals in particular with the modes of action of multitrophic interactions involving endophytic bacteria or fungi that have biological control activity towards the root-knot nematode, Meloidogyne incognita, and the potato cyst nematode, Globodera pallida, on tomato or potato. The bacterial and fungal endophytes discussed here are those that: (1) have the ability to colonise the endorhiza at some point in their life-cycle; (2) can grow saprophytically in the soil or in the rhizosphere; and (3) have plant health promoting activity and antagonistic activity towards sedentary plant-parasitic nematodes. http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png Australasian Plant Pathology Springer Journals

Abstract

This article discusses the extensive research that has been conducted on the use of mutualistic bacterial and fungal endophytes for the biological control of plant-parasitic nematodes. This review deals in particular with the modes of action of multitrophic interactions involving endophytic bacteria or fungi that have biological control activity towards the root-knot nematode, Meloidogyne incognita, and the potato cyst nematode, Globodera pallida, on tomato or potato. The bacterial and fungal endophytes discussed here are those that: (1) have the ability to colonise the endorhiza at some point in their life-cycle; (2) can grow saprophytically in the soil or in the rhizosphere; and (3) have plant health promoting activity and antagonistic activity towards sedentary plant-parasitic nematodes.
