Approximately 2,500 eggs of M. enterolobii were inoculated on each soybean genotype grown in a steam sterilized 1:1 sand to soil mixture. Sixty days postinoculation, plants were destructively harvested to determine the host status. The host status of each soybean genotype was determined by assessing root galling severity and calculating the final eggs per root system divided by the initial inoculum, or the reproduction factor (Rf). Five G. soja soybean genotypes were identified as resistant (Rf < 1) to M. enterolobii: ‘407202’, ‘407239’, ‘424083’, ‘507618’, and ‘639621’. None of the tested G. max soybean genotypes were identified as resistant to M. enterolobii. Some of the G. max genotypes determined to be susceptible to M. enterolobii include ‘Hagood’, ‘Avery’, ‘Rhodes’, ‘Santee’, and ‘Bryan’. The genotype ‘Bryan’ had the lowest Rf values among the group at 5.06 and 6.67 in two independent trials, respectively, which represents a five- to sixfold increase in reproduction of M. enterolobii. Plant genotypes resistant to RKNs are effective in managing the disease and preserving yield, cost-efficient, and environmentally sustainable, and host resistance is often regarded as the most robust management tactic for controlling plant-parasitic nematodes. Resistance to RKNs in soybean genotypes has been identified for other Meloidogyne species, yet there is currently limited data regarding soybean host status to the highly aggressive nematode M. enterolobii. This study adds to the knowledge of potential native resistance to M. enterolobii in wild and cultivated soybean. }, number={3}, journal={PLANT DISEASE}, author={Schwarz, Tanner and Gorny, Adrienne}, year={2024}, month={Mar}, pages={694–699} } @article{schwarz_chitra_jennings_gorny_2024, title={Evaluation of Weed Species for Host Status to the Root-Knot Nematodes Meloidogyne enterolobii and M. incognita Race 4}, volume={56}, ISSN={["2640-396X"]}, DOI={10.2478/jofnem-2024-0017}, abstractNote={Abstract Weeds that compete with valuable crops can also host plant-parasitic nematodes, acting as a source of nematode inoculum in a field and further damaging crops. The host status of 10 weed species commonly found in North Carolina, USA, was determined for the root-knot nematodes Meloidogyne enterolobii and M. incognita race 4 in the greenhouse. Each weed species was challenged with 5,000 eggs/plant of either M. enterolobii or M. incognita race 4, with five replicate plants per treatment in two separate greenhouse trials. Root galling severity and total number of nematode eggs per root system were recorded 60 days after inoculation. Reproduction factor (Rf = final nematode population/initial nematode population) was calculated to determine the host status of each weed species to M. enterolobii and M. incognita race 4. Four weed species ( Datura stramonium, Digitaria sanguinalis, Senna obtusifolia, and Cyperus esculentus ) were poor hosts (Rf < 1) to both nematode species, and roots of these weed plants did not display galling. Four weed species ( Ipomoea hederacea, Amaranthus palmeri, Portulaca pilosa, and Ipomoea lacunosa ) were hosts (Rf > 1) to both nematode species, and all had observable root gall formation. Sida rhombifolia and Cyperus rotundus were poor hosts to M. enterolobii but susceptible hosts to M. incognita . This study documents a differential host status of some common weeds to M. enterolobii and M. incognita race 4, and these results highlight the necessity of managing root-knot nematodes through controlling weeds in order to protect valuable crops.}, number={1}, journal={JOURNAL OF NEMATOLOGY}, author={Schwarz, Tanner and Chitra and Jennings, Katherine and Gorny, Adrienne}, year={2024}, month={Mar} } @article{foote_jordan_gorny_dunne_lux_ahumada_shew_brandenburg_ye_2024, title={Influence of Cropping Sequence and Tillage System on Plant-Parasitic Nematodes and Peanut (Arachis hypogaea) Response to Fluopyram Applied at Planting}, volume={14}, ISSN={["2073-4395"]}, DOI={10.3390/agronomy14040875}, abstractNote={Crop sequence and tillage can affect the yield of peanut (Arachis hypogaea L.) and other crops. Research was conducted from 2006 through 2022 to determine the response of peanut to previous crop sequences including corn (Zea mays L.) and cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) planted in continuous conventional tillage (e.g., disking, field cultivating, and bedding with in-row sub-soiling) or strip tillage (e.g., tilling a 45 cm section on rows spaced 91 cm apart using fluted coulters, rolling baskets, and in-row sub-soiling). In 2013, 2019, and 2022, the entire test area was planted with peanut. In 2019 and 2022, peanut was planted without or with fluopyram applied in the seed furrow at planting. Decreasing the number of years between peanut planting resulted in lower peanut yields compared with fewer years of peanut planting in the rotation sequence. Continuous conventional tillage and strip tillage resulted in similar peanut yields at one location, while the yield was lower at a second location when peanut was planted in continuous strip tillage. Fluopyram did not affect peanut yield regardless of previous crop rotation sequence, the number of years separating peanut plantings, or the tillage system. However, minor differences in the populations of plant-parasitic nematodes in soil were noted when comparing fluopyram treatment. The results from these experiments indicate that while fluopyram can reduce the populations of some plant-parasitic nematodes in soil, the magnitude of reduction does not translate into increases in peanut yield.}, number={4}, journal={AGRONOMY-BASEL}, author={Foote, Ethan and Jordan, David and Gorny, Adrienne and Dunne, Jeffrey and Lux, Leann and Ahumada, Daisy and Shew, Barbara and Brandenburg, Rick and Ye, Weimin}, year={2024}, month={Apr} } @article{gorny_reeves_scruggs_meadows_2024, title={Prevalence, Spatial Distribution, and Population Density of Plant-Parasitic Nematodes in Vegetable Fields of North Carolina, South Carolina, and Tennessee Counties}, volume={1}, ISSN={["1535-1025"]}, url={https://doi.org/10.1094/PHP-05-23-0044-S}, DOI={10.1094/PHP-05-23-0044-S}, abstractNote={ Plant-parasitic nematodes are a diverse group of soilborne plant pathogens that limit the yield of numerous vegetable crops globally. Few studies have investigated nematode populations affecting vegetable crops in Tennessee and North and South Carolina. Between December 2020 and October 2022, vegetable fields in selected counties of these states were sampled for plant-parasitic nematodes. Data on the prevalence, spatial distribution, and population density of seven genera of plant-parasitic nematodes, identified via morphology, were collected. Root-knot nematodes were identified in 60% of the fields sampled, with population densities ranging from 10 to 10,400 nematodes per 500 cm3 of soil. Detection rates of other genera as percentages of total fields sampled were: spiral (42%), stubby root (32%), stunt (21%), ring (13%), and lesion (8%) nematodes. Out of eight crops sampled, fields either currently or formerly planted to tomato or pepper were the most frequently sampled in the survey (77% of total fields). This is the first survey to collect data on populations of plant-parasitic nematodes in this region, and the results highlight the need for continued surveillance and study of their impact in vegetable production. }, journal={PLANT HEALTH PROGRESS}, author={Gorny, Adrienne and Reeves, Ella and Scruggs, Andrew and Meadows, Inga}, year={2024}, month={Jan} } @article{saha_schwarz_mowery_gorny_2023, title={Reaction of Winter Cover Crops to Meloidogyne enterolobii and Glasshouse Bioassay for Evaluating Utility in Managing M. enterolobii in Soybeans}, volume={55}, ISSN={["2640-396X"]}, DOI={10.2478/jofnem-2023-0014}, abstractNote={Abstract}, number={1}, journal={JOURNAL OF NEMATOLOGY}, author={Saha, Neel and Schwarz, Tanner and Mowery, Samantha and Gorny, Adrienne M.}, year={2023}, month={Feb}, pages={1–10} } @article{jordan_buol_brandenburg_shew_wilkerson_lassiter_dunne_gorny_washburn_hoisington_et al._2022, title={A Risk Tool and Production Log Created using Microsoft Excel to Manage Pests in Peanut (Arachis hypogaea)}, volume={13}, ISSN={["2155-7470"]}, DOI={10.1093/jipm/pmac006}, abstractNote={Abstract}, number={1}, journal={JOURNAL OF INTEGRATED PEST MANAGEMENT}, author={Jordan, David L. and Buol, Greg S. and Brandenburg, Rick L. and Shew, Barbara B. and Wilkerson, Gail G. and Lassiter, Bridget R. and Dunne, Jeff and Gorny, Adrienne and Washburn, Derek and Hoisington, David and et al.}, year={2022}, month={Jan} } @article{mahecha-garnica_ye_schumacher_gorny_2022, title={Soybean Cyst Nematode of Soybean: A Diagnostic Guide}, ISSN={["1535-1025"]}, DOI={10.1094/PHP-11-21-0138-DG}, abstractNote={ The soybean cyst nematode (SCN; Heterodera glycines Ichinohe 1952) is one of the most economically important pathogens of soybean.

Recently, this pathogen has been considered as a global threat for tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.) production due to the lack of known resistance in commercially accepted varieties and the aggressiveness of M. enterolobii. Both conventional morphological and molecular approaches have been used to identify M. enterolobii, an important first step in an integrated management. To combat root-knot nematodes, integrated disease management strategies such as crop rotation, field sanitation, biocontrol agents, fumigants, and resistant cultivars have been developed and successfully used in the past. However, the resistance in tomato varieties mediated by known Mi-genes does not control M. enterolobii.
