Book Plant Parasitic Nematodes in Sustainable Agriculture of North America

Download or read book Plant Parasitic Nematodes in Sustainable Agriculture of North America written by Sergei A. Subbotin and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-12-17 with total page 457 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Plant-parasitic nematodes are recognized as one of the greatest threats to crop production throughout the world. Estimated annual crop losses of $8 billion in the United States and $78 billion worldwide are attributed to plant parasitic nematodes. Plant parasitic nematodes not only cause damage individually but form disease-complexes with other microorganisms thereby increasing crop loss. Nematode diseases of crops are difficult to control because of their insidious nature and lack of specific diagnostic symptoms which closely resemble those caused by other plant pathogens and abiotic diseases. Future developments of sustainable management systems for preventing major economical agricultural losses due to nematodes is focused on strategies that limit production costs, enhance crop yields, and protect the environment. This book presents a first compendium and overview for nematode problems and their management across North America. Each chapter provides essential information on the occurrence and distribution of plant parasitic nematodes, their major crop hosts, impact on crop production and sustainable management strategies for each region of the continent including, Canada, Mexico and all states of the USA. For each region, a thematic overview of changes in crop production affected by plant parasitic nematodes and their management strategies over time will provide invaluable information on the important role of plant parasitic nematodes in sustainable agriculture.

Book Determining Alternative and Sustainable Management Strategies to Manage the Northern Root knot Nematode  Meloidogyne Hapla  in Ornamental Plant Production Fields

Download or read book Determining Alternative and Sustainable Management Strategies to Manage the Northern Root knot Nematode Meloidogyne Hapla in Ornamental Plant Production Fields written by Amanda D. Howland and published by . This book was released on 2023 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The United States floriculture industry was valued at $6.43 billion in 2021, with Michigan being the third largest producer, producing 10% of all ornamental plants in the United States. A major constraint to the production of bare-rooted ornamental plants grown in the field are plant-parasitic nematodes. In Michigan, plant-parasitic nematodes cause millions of dollars in economic loss each year in the state's $104.7 billion agriculture industry. In the northern United States and Canada, the northern root-knot nematode, Meloidogyne hapla, is the most economically important perennial ornamental pathogen. While this is a known major pathogen of daylily production, one of top commodities in ornamental plant production in Michigan, very little is known about its impact in daylily production fields or how to effectively manage this pest. There are only two main management strategies for M. hapla in ornamental plant fields: hot water dips and preplant fumigation, both of which do not control M. hapla the entire production cycle and are therefore only semi-effective. Therefore, research was conducted to determine alternative management strategies to manage M. hapla in daylily production fields, with the goal to prevent yield loss and exportation rejection, and reduce the economic burden of this pest. Three multi-year field trials at a commercial nursery in Zeeland, MI, and several greenhouse experiments at Michigan State University's Plant Greenhouses, East Lansing, MI, were conducted to test several different management options and combination of management options to find the best new management strategies to control M. hapla in ornamental plant fields. The results of these studies demonstrate that there are more effective solutions for M. hapla management in ornamental plant field production compared to current practices and highlight three new management options: Indemnify as a soil drench, Majestene 304, and TerraClean 5.0 have been shown to provide the best M. hapla management in daylily fields, with a reduction in M. hapla population levels by 39.5%, 34.7%, and 28.8%, respectively, compared to the control. Indemnify also reduced the number of galled roots by 80% compared to the control plants, which is considerable and can lead to less fields being quarantined and fewer shipment rejections, significantly increasing the profits of the ornamental plant industry. The Indemnify treatment was additionally shown to have a significant positive effect on plant growth, producing plants with some of the largest overall plant biomass, such as plant heights, shoot weights, crown widths, and, most importantly, yield. Plants where Indemnify was applied as a soil drench always had higher yields (on average 41.3% higher) compared to the control plants and higher yields (on average 40% higher) compared to Telone II fumigation. These experiments also show that the annual application of treatments throughout the production cycle is crucial and provides significantly better M. hapla management compared to current practices, which only focuses on managing nematodes at the beginning of the production cycle. Most importantly, these trials show that there was no impact on plant growth, health, and yield from annual treatment applications. Even though M. hapla is well established in these monoculture, long-term ornamental plant fields, a trial determining possible soil suppression showed that natural suppression may not be occurring in ornamental plant fields in Michigan, but more experiments are needed. Two greenhouse trials tested the damage potential and host status of Hemerocallis spp. to M. hapla and Paratylenchus spp., and determined the threshold level of M. hapla. These greenhouse experiments show that daylily is an excellent host to M. hapla, with a threshold level as low as 13 M. hapla/100 cm3 soil. The data also suggests that even though M. hapla affects plant growth, daylily plants may actually be tolerant to M. hapla; over the length of the daylily growth cycle, the plants became more tolerant of its feeding and grew to similar sizes of the nematode-free plants. Lastly, daylily was shown to not be a host to Paratylenchus spp., and therefore, these nematodes do not need to be included in management decisions. Through the application of the new alternative and more sustainable management strategies described in this dissertation, M. hapla can be effectively and efficiently managed in ornamental plant fields leading to a significant advancement in the floriculture industry in Michigan, the northern United States, and Canada.

Book Advances in Molecular Plant Nematology

Download or read book Advances in Molecular Plant Nematology written by F. Lamberti and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-06-29 with total page 303 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Plant parasitic nematodes are a main pest to crops. For ex am pie, the root-knot nematodes belonging to the genus Meloidogyne are worldwide in their distribution and attack almost every type of crop, causing considerable losses of yield and affecting quality of produce. The cyst nematodes within the genera Globodera and Heterodera constitute a major group of plant pathogens in many countries throughout the world, suppressing yields of potato, sugar beet, soybean and cereals. Several nematodes such as longidorids and trichodorids are implicated in the transmission of numerous plant viruses. Many others cause constraints to agricultural production either locally or on large areas. However, despite their economic importance (they account for worldwide crop reduction in excess of 10%), plant parasitic nematodes are still poorly understood, because most of them are obligate parasites of roots. Environmental concerns over the agricultural use of pesticides demand the development of alternative measures to control them. To achieve environmentally sound control, knowledge of the basic biology of nematodes must be expanded. Important research areas include understanding the molecular bases for pathogenicity, the molecular mechanisms of the host parasite interactions and the genetic bases for population fluctuations. The workshop has, for the first time, brought together an international group of researchers using molecular approaches to study plant parasitic nematodes and their host responses.
