Other claims from this paper (11)
- Observation High infection rates of wild olive feeder roots and soil infestation by a new root-knot nematode were found in sandy soil at Vejer de la Frontera, southern Spain.
- Observation Morphometric traits, esterase pattern and rDNA sequences showed that the specimens differed clearly from known root-knot nematodes.
- Observation Naturally infected wild olive plants showed a typical susceptible reaction to the new nematode.
- Observation Olive planting stocks (cvs. Arbequina and Picual) artificially inoculated with the nematode showed a typical susceptible reaction.
- Observation The new nematode did not reproduce in artificially inoculated chickpea.
- Observation The new nematode did not reproduce in artificially inoculated pea.
- Observation The new nematode did not reproduce in artificially inoculated tomato.
- Observation The species is described and illustrated and named Meloidogyne baetica n. sp.
- Observation The new nematode has a perineal pattern almost similar to M. artiellia, with distinct inner striae forming two longitudinal bands extending to just below the vulva.
- Observation Second-stage juveniles of the new nematode have an elongate-conoid tail.
- Observation Maximum parsimony phylogenetic trees showed M. baetica closely related to M. artiellia.
