1、Virus vectoring ability of a Xiphinema americanum population,By:Charlie TaMentor:Dr.Inga ZasadaUnited States Department of Agriculture:Agricultural Research Services,Justification,Plant-parasitic nematodes cause$100 billion in crop loss annually worldwide;$10 billion in the U.S.(blueberries,red rasp

2、berries,and wine grape industry)Plants affected by X.americanum or nepoviruses become(s)necrotic,yield is reduced,and plant mortality can occur Currently few methods exist to control nematodes or remediate the diseases they transmitRegulations by the U.S.Environmental Protection Agency will soon lim

4、Virus(TRSV)with their odontostyle,head,tail,Nepoviruses,Nematode-transmitted virus with polyhedral particlesType IV virus under the Baltimore classification system(positive sense single-stranded RNA that directly translates into protein)Acquisition of virus occurs during feeding and binds to the sur

5、face ofthe odontostyleViruses are lost when nematodes molt,odontostyle,Molecular Protocols,A RT-qPCR can be used for the detection of ToRSV in X.americanum at low concentration levels.Virus detection using RT-qPCR allows for a detailed study of nematode-virus interactions.,The coloration occurs due
