We had a successful season collecting Mi-1 resistance-breaking root-knot nematodes from various locations across California's Central Valley. Excited to move forward with sequencing their genomes in collaboration with @simoncgroen . Thanks to @TomatoResearch and @USDA_NIFA for funding this exciting research @AlisonCBlundell
Application for admission at The International Master of science in agro and inviromental Nematology @ImanemaUgent is now open!
The best place in the world to study #nematodes.
I did and I would do it again! One of the best experience of my life :)
A New Root-Knot Nematode species, Meloidogyne karsseni n. sp. (Nematoda: Meloidogynidae), From Mexico and a Taxonomic Update on M. paranaensis From Guatemala https://t.co/8O019pGGZW
New Resistance resource in rice against root-knot nematodes.
MG1 interacts with a protease inhibitor and confers resistance to rice root-knot nematode

I wish everyday was NEMATODE MONDAY, don’t you?? Root-knot nematode (Meloidogyne incognita) on cucumber. Plants showing mild nutritional deficiency symptoms & stunted growth. Swelling (galls) visible on disrupted root system. Poor weed control too #Nematode#Plantdisease
SHOOT, the phylogenetic sequence search engine, has been published!
SHOOT is like BLAST, but instead of a list of similar sequences you get a maximum likelihood phylogenetic tree for your query gene sequence.
