Genome sequence of the metazoan plant-parasitic nematode Meloidogyne incognita

Pierre Abad, +76 more
- 27 Jul 2008 - 
TL;DR: The draft genome sequence of the root-knot nematode Meloidogyne incognita, a biotrophic parasite of many crops, is reported, providing insights into the adaptations required by metazoans to successfully parasitize immunocompetent plants, and open the way for discovering new antiparasitic strategies.
Journal ArticleDOI

Crops that feed the world 8: Potato: are the trends of increased global production sustainable?

TL;DR: The genomics era is accelerating the understanding of the key genes and mechanisms underlying potato development, physiology, water and nutrient use efficiency and resistance to biotic and abiotic stresses, and Genomics technologies provide the potential for more rapid, marker-assisted breeding strategies, and afford the opportunity for biotechnological approaches.
BookDOI

Genomics and Molecular Genetics of Plant-Nematode Interactions

TL;DR: This chapter discusses the role of Arabidopsis as a tool for the study of plant-nematode interactions, and next generation sequencing technology to study plant responses to nematode infection.
