Abstract/Contents:"The growth and development of galls induced by Anguina agrostis were observed in the inflorescences of annual ryegrass (Lolium rigidum) plants harvested at weekly intervals from inoculated field plots. Infective dauer larvae of A. agrostis colonized plants during their vegetative growth phase, and gall induction had occurred by the time floret development was readily discernible within developing spikelets. Galls typically developed in place of ovules, less commonly in place of stamens, and rarely on glumes or rachis. The galls, which grew rapidly as nematodes developed, consisted of a wall several cell layers deep surrounding a central cavity. Cells adjacent to the cavity were modified, presumably to provide metabolites for development and reproduction of the nematodes, which completed a single generation before plant senescence occurred and the galls dried out. Cells at the surface were unchanged, thus maintaining the structure of the galls."
