Abstract excerpt
Plant parasitic root-knot nematodes (RKN) such as Meloidogyne incognita cause significant crop losses worldwide. Although RKN are polyphagous, with wide host ranges, races with differing host compatibilities have evolved. Associations between genotype and infection phenotype in M. incognita have not yet been discovered. In this study, 48 M. incognita isolates were collected from geographically diverse fields in...
