Abstract/Contents: | "Plant parasitic nematodes are ubiquitous and cosmopolitan pathogens of vascular plants and exploit all parts of the roots and shoots, causing substantial crop damage. Nematodes deploy a broad spectrum of feeding strategies, ranging from simple grazing to the establishment of complex cellular structures (including galls) in host tissues. Various models of feeding site formation have been proposed , and a role for phytohormones has long been speculated, although whether they perform a primary or secondary function is unclear. On the basis of recent molecular evidence, we present several scenarios involving phytohormones in the induction of giant cells by root-knot nematode. The origin of parasitism by nematodes, including the acquisition of genes to synthesize or modulate phytohormones also is discussed, and models for horizontal gene transfer are presented." |
