Alteration in endospore attachment of H. cajani specific Pasteuria to different age groups of H. cajani J2 exposed to host and non-host root exudates.
Kumar, Kiran; Davies, Keith; Mohan, Sharad (2016-08-28)Plant root exudates and rhizosphere microbes, including nematodes, are involved in highly specific chemical communication that we know little about. Freshly hatched J2 of the pigeon-pea cyst nematode Heterodera cajani and ... -
Host plant root exudates reduce phytonematode cuticle aging to maintain Pasteuria endospore attachment
Mohan, Sharad; Kumar, Kiran; Davies, Keith (2022-03-17)Endospores of the nematode hyperparasite from the Pasteuria group of Gram-positive bacteria have the potential to suppress phytonematode populations and reduce root infection. Parasitism by the bacteria commences when ... -
Understanding nematode suppressive soils: molecular interactions between Pasteuria endospores and the nematode surface coat
Davies, Keith; Srivastava, Arohi; Kumar, Kiran; Mohan, Sharad (Association of Applied Biologists, 2015-09-07)The knowledge that the plant-parasitic nematode hyperparasite Pasteuria penetrans is important in nematode suppressive soils has long been recognised. The ability to mass produce this organism in vitro circumvents one of ...
