Invasion and Migration Behaviour of Sedentary Nematodes

  • Chapter
Cellular and Molecular Aspects of Plant-Nematode Interactions

Part of the book series: Developments in Plant Pathology ((DIPP,volume 10))

Abstract

Research on the invasion and migration behaviour of sedentary nematodes is reviewed, with emphasis on the root-knot nematodes, Meloidogyne spp., and with particular reference to the orientation in the host, changes that occur in the nematode, the importance of nematode secretory products and the response of the plant. A comparison with cyst-forming nematodes highlights two important features during Meloidogyne migration which are discussed: the intercellular movement of the juveniles through plant tissues and the ability of orientation within the root tip. As the second-stage juveniles of all Meloidogyne species show this behaviour independent of the host, future research on these two topics may provide information leading to the development of plants with resistance to root-knot nematodes that operates during the early stages of infection.
