경북 안동에서 재배하는 둥근마(Dioscorea bulbifera)에서 뿌리혹선충 피해가 발견되었다. 피해 괴경에서 다수의 암컷 선충을 분리하였고, 이들의 cytochrome oxidase subunit II (COII) DNA 서열을 분석하였다. 둥근마의 뿌리혹 형성을 유도하는 식물 선충의 COII 유전자위 크기와 염기서열은 Meloidogyne javanica 또는 M. incognita의 해당 영역과 높은 유사도를 보였다. 그러나 이들 두 종을 구분하는데 이용되는 제한효소(HinfI)위치에 있어서 본 둥근마로부터 분리된 뿌리혹선충은 이들 두 종과 뚜렷한 차이를 보였다.

Sweetpotato (Ipomoea batatas [L.]) is a globally important root crop cultivated for food and industrial processes. The crop is susceptible to the root-knot nematode (RKN) Meloidogyne incognita, a major plant-parasitic RKN that reduces the yield and quality of sweetpotato. Previous transcriptomic and proteomic analyses identified several genes that displayed differential expression patterns in susceptible and resistant cultivars in response to M. incognita infection. Among these, several sporamin genes were identified for RKN resilience. Sporamin is a storage protein primarily found in sweetpotato and morning glory (Ipomoea nil). In this study, transcriptional analysis was employed to investigate the role of sporamin genes in the defense response of sweetpotato against RKN infection in three susceptible and three resistant cultivars. Twenty-three sporamin genes were identified in sweetpotato and classified as group A or group B sporamin genes based on comparisons with characterized sweetpotato and Japanese morning glory sporamins. Two group A sporamin genes showed significantly elevated levels of expression in resistant but not in susceptible cultivars. These results suggest that the elevated expression of specific sporamin genes may play a crucial role in protecting sweetpotato roots from RKN infection.

The inhabitation and parasitism of root-knot nematodes (RKNs) can be difficult to control, as its symptoms can be easily confused with other plant diseases; hence, identifying and controlling the occurrence of RKNs in plants remains an ongoing challenge. Moreover, there are only a few biological agents for controlling these harmful nematodes. In this study, Xenorhabdus sp. SCG isolated from entomopathogenic nematodes of genus Steinernema was evaluated for nematicidal effects under in vitro and greenhouse conditions. The cell-free filtrates of strain SCG showed nematicidal activity against Meloidogyne species J2s, with mortalities of > 88% at a final concentration of 10%, as well as significant nematicidal activity against the three other genera of plant-parasitic nematodes in a dose-dependent manner. Thymine was isolated as active compounds by assay-guided fractionation and showed high nematicidal activity against M. incognita. Greenhouse experiments suggested that cell-free filtrates of strain SCG efficiently controlled the nematode population in M. incognita-infested tomatoes (Solanum lycopersicum L., cv. Rutgers). In addition, a significant increase in host plant growth was observed after 45 days of treatment. To our knowledge, this is the first to demonstrate the nematicidal activity spectrum of isolated Xenorhabdus species and their application to S. lycopersicum L., cv. Rutgers under greenhouse conditions. Xenorhabdus sp. SCG could be a promising biological nematicidal agent with plant growth-enhancing properties.

Lactic acid bacteria (LAB) exert antagonistic activity against root-knot nematodes, mainly by producing organic acids via carbohydrate fermentation. However, they have not yet been used for root-knot nematode (Meloidogyne incognita) control owing to a lack of economic feasibility and effectiveness. In this study, we aimed to isolate organic acid-producing LAB from kimchi (Korean traditional fermented cabbage) and evaluated their nematicidal activity. Among the 234 strains isolated, those showing the highest nematicidal activity were selected and identified as Lactiplantibacillus plantarum WiKim0090. Nematicidal activity and egg hatch inhibitory activity of WiKim0090 culture filtrate were dose dependent. Nematode mortality 3 days after treatment with 2.5% of the culture filtrate was 100%, with a 50% lethal concentration of 1.41%. In pot tests, the inhibitory activity of an L. plantarum WiKim0090-copper sulfate mixture on gall formation increased. Compared to abamectin application, which is a commercial nematicide, a higher control value was observed using the WiKim0090-copper sulfate mixture, indicating that this combination can be effective in controlling the root-knot nematode.

국내에서 시판되고 있는 고추 92품종을 이용하여 국내 시설재배지에서 가장 많이 분포하고 있는 두 종의 뿌리혹선충, Meloidogyne arenaria와 M. incognita에 대한 저항성을 검정하였다. M. arenaria에는 시판 고추 품종 모두가 저항성이었으며(난낭수 0-3/plant), M. incognita에는 모두 감수성이었다(난낭수 76-678/plant). M. incognita에는 모두가 감수성이었으나 품종별로 약간의 차이는 있었는데 거목(동부한농)과 신태풍(명산종묘) 2품종은 난낭이 포기당 100개 이하로 발생되어 불꽃처럼(누넴종묘) 등 29품종의 포기당 난낭수 300개 이상에 비해 상대적으로 적었다. 뿌리혹선충 피해가 심한 시설재배지 중에서, M. arenaria가 감염된 농가에서는 윤작작물로 고추를 심는 것을 적극 추천하고 반면, M. incognita가 감염된 포장에 고추는 윤작작물로 적절하지 않다.

A great variable response was observed when PP-3 and PP-J encumbered with 116 populations of root knot nematode (RKN) at two different temperatures ($25{\pm}2^{\circ}C$ and $30{\pm}2^{\circ}C$) and concentrations ($10^4$ and $10^5$ spores/ml). The PCR reaction amplified intergenic region between cytochrome oxidase subunit II gene (COII) and large subunit of rRNA gene (lrRNA) of the mitochondrial genome of different RKN species. The primer C2F3 and 1108 identified M. incognita with the highest frequency (52.6%) followed by M. javanica (36.8%) and M. arenaria (10.5%). The sizes of PCR products were 1.7 kb for M. incognita and M. javanica populations while populations of M. arenaria produced 1.1 kb fragment. The digestion with Hinf I yielded three different fragment length patterns on 1.5 % agarose gel. From current research it is concluded that intra-Meloidogyne genetic variability exist in RKN populations which have better encumbrance with P. penetrans.

Root-knot nematodes (Meloidogyne spp.) are parasites that attack many field crops and orchard trees, and affect both the quantity and quality of the products. A root-colonizing bacterium, Pseudomonas chlororaphis O6, possesses beneficial traits including strong nematicidal activity. To determine the molecular mechanisms involved in the nematicidal activity of P. chlororaphis O6, we constructed two mutants; one lacking hydrogen cyanide production, and a second lacking an insecticidal toxin, FitD. Root drenching with wild-type P. chlororaphis O6 cells caused juvenile mortality in vitro and in planta. Efficacy was not altered in the fitD mutant compared to the wild-type but was reduced in both bioassays for the mutant lacking hydrogen cyanide production. The reduced number of galls on tomato plants caused by the wild-type strain was comparable to that of a standard chemical nematicide. These findings suggest that hydrogen cyanide-producing root colonizers, such as P. chlororaphis O6, could be formulated as "green" nematicides that are compatible with many crops and offer agricultural sustainability.

2012년 충남 부여에서 뿌리혹선충(Meloidogyne incognita, M. arenaria 및 M. javanica)에 대한 저항성 유전자 Mi를 가지고 있는 토마토 '유니콘' 품종에서 뿌리혹선충병이 크게 발생하였다. 이로부터 분리한 뿌리혹선충은 종 특이적 프라이머 2개에 의한 분석한 결과, M. incognita로 동정되었다. 이 선충에 의한 감수성 1개와 저항성 3개 토마토 품종의 뿌리혹선충병 발생을 조사하였는데, 실험한 모든 온도 조건에서 실험한 품종 모두는 높은 감수성을 보였다. 그리고 시판 중인 토마토 33개 품종(뿌리혹선충 저항성 25개와 감수성 8개)의 이 선충에 대한 저항성 정도를 조사한 결과, 실험한 모든 품종들은 각 품종의 뿌리혹선충 저항성과 관계없이 유사한 정도의 높은 감수성을 나타냈다. 본 논문은 우리나라에서 Mi 저항성 토마토 품종에 뿌리혹선충병을 일으키는 M. incognita 발생을 처음으로 보고하는 것이다. 한편, 새로운 저항성 육종 소재를 찾기 위한 효율적인 저항성 검정 방법을 확립하기 위하여, 이 선충의 접종 농도, 토마토 생육 시기 및 이식 시기 등의 다양한 발병 조건에 따른 토마토 4개 품종의 뿌리혹선충병 발생을 조사하였다. 접종원의 접종 농도가 증가할수록 토마토의 뿌리혹선충병 발생은 농도 의존적으로 증가하였다. 하지만 토마토의 생육 시기 및 이식 시기에 따른 토마토의 뿌리혹선충병 발생은 유의성 있는 차이가 없었다. 이들 결과들을 바탕으로 Mi-virulent M. incognita에 대한 토마토의 저항성 정도를 검정하기 위한 효율적인 방법을 제안하는 바이다.
