Plant-parasitic nematodes (PPNs) interact with plants in different ways, for example, through
subtle feeding behavior, migrating destructively through infected tissues, or acting as virus …

Sedentary endoparasites such as cyst and root-knot nematodes infect many important food
crops and are major agro-economical pests worldwide. These plant-parasitic nematodes …

Summary Root‐knot nematodes (RKNs; Meloidogyne spp.) induce new post‐embryogenic
organs within the roots (galls) where they stablish and differentiate nematode feeding cells …

Root-knot nematodes (RKNs) cause huge agricultural losses every year. They secrete a
repertoire of effectors to facilitate parasitism through the induction of plant-derived giant …

Plant root architecture plasticity in response to biotic stresses has not been thoroughly
investigated. Infection by endoparasitic cyst nematodes induces root architectural changes …

Legumes form two types of root organs in response to signals from microbes, namely,
nodules and root galls. In the field, these interactions occur concurrently and often interact …

In the post-embryonic stage of Arabidopsis thaliana, roots can be initiated from the vascular
region of the existing roots or non-root organs; they are designated as lateral roots (LRs) …

Most effective nematicides for the control of root-knot nematodes are banned, which
demands a better understanding of the plant-nematode interaction. Understanding how …

Investigation of cotton response to nematode infection will allow us to better understand the
cotton immune defense mechanism and design a better biotechnological approach for …

Following nematode infestation, leaf-localized responses are vital not only as early infection
signs but also as an indication of actions required to preserve crop productivity. In this …
