Exploring the mechanisms of host-specificity of a hyperparasitic bacterium (Pasteuria spp.) with potential to control tropical root-knot nematodes (Meloidogyne spp.): insights from Caenorhabditis elegans
Davies, Keith; Mohan, Sharad; Phani, Victor; Srivastava, Arohi (2023-12-20)Plant-parasitic nematodes are important economic pests of a range of tropical crops. Strategies for managing these pests have relied on a range of approaches, including crop rotation, the utilization of genetic resistance, ... -
Knockdown of a mucin-like gene in Meloidogyne incognita (Nematoda) decreases attachment of endospores of Pasteuria penetrans to the infective juveniles and reduces nematode fecundity : Mucin-like gene from M. incognita
Phani, Victor; Shivakumra, Tagginahalli; Davies, Keith; Rao, Uma (2018-11-01)Mucins are highly glycosylated polypeptides involved in many host–parasite interactions, but their function in plant-parasitic nematodes is still unknown. In this study, a mucin-like gene was cloned from Meloidogyne incognita ... -
Meloidogyne incognita Fatty Acid- and Retinol- Binding Protein (Mi-FAR-1) Affects Nematode Infection of Plant Roots and the Attachment of Pasteuria penetrans Endospores : Mi-FAR-1 Affects Pasteuria attachment and nematode infection
Phani, Victor; Shivakumra, Tagginahalli; Davies, Keith; Rao, Uma (2017-11-01)Root-knot nematode (RKN) Meloidogyne incognita is an economically important pest of crops. Pasteuria penetrans, is a nematode hyperparasitic bacterium capable of suppressing the reproduction of RKN and thereby useful for ... -
A transcriptomic snapshot of early molecular communication between Pasteuria penetrans and Meloidogyne incognita
Phani, Victor; Somvanshi, Vishal; Shukla, Rohit; Davies, Keith; Rao, Uma (2018-11-29)Background: Southern root-knot nematode Meloidogyne incognita (Kofoid and White, 1919), Chitwood, 1949 is a key pest of agricultural crops. Pasteuria penetrans is a hyperparasitic bacterium capable of suppressing the ...
