First Report of Meloidogyne partityla on Pecan in Florida

Pecan (Carya illinoensis (Wagenh.) K. Koch) is an important tree in the southern United States for commercial nut production and residential use. Meloidogyne partityla (pecan root-knot nematode) is only known to parasitize trees in the Juglandaceae including pecan, walnut, and hickory. In the United...

520 |a Pecan (Carya illinoensis (Wagenh.) K. Koch) is an important tree in the southern United States for commercial nut production and residential use. Meloidogyne partityla (pecan root-knot nematode) is only known to parasitize trees in the Juglandaceae including pecan, walnut, and hickory. In the United States, it has been reported on pecan in Texas, New Mexico, and Georgia and internationally in South Africa. Portions of a large pecan nursery in Madison County, Florida were infested with an unknown species of root-knot nematode. The pecan trees at this nursery are grafted onto rootstock and grown in the field until the trees are large enough to sell as bare-root transplant stock in several states including and adjoining Florida. Trees infected by the root-knot nematodes were stunted, had extensive galling and rotting of the root system, and pulled from the ground relatively easily compared with noninfected trees. Attempts to rear these nematodes on tomato in the greenhouse were unsuccessful. Young egg-laying females were isolated directly from pecan roots for speciation. Enzymes extracted from females were resolved with polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis [4% stacking (pH 6.8) and 8% separating gel (pH 8.8) with Tris-glycine buffer]. The esterase (Est) and malate dehydrogenase (Mdh) phenotypes of the unknown Meloidogyne sp. were consistent with those reported for M. partityla. In addition, specimens of M. partityla maintained by the USDA Southeastern Fruit and Tree Nut Research Laboratory in Byron, GA were obtained and their Est and Mdh phenotypes compared with the unknown Meloidogyne sp. under identical electrophoretic and enzyme staining protocols. The Est and Mdh phenotypes of the two isolates were identical. Therefore, we conclude that the root-knot nematodes infesting the pecan nursery in Florida are M. partityla. To our knowledge, this is the first report of this nematode in Florida and also the first report of this nematode from infected nursery stock. It is unknown how long the field has been infested but clearly, there is potential for spread of M. partityla to locations around Florida and bordering states. This nematode may be widespread throughout pecan-growing regions of the United States. References: (1) K. P. N. Kleynhans. Phytophylactica 18:103, 1986. (2) A. P. Nyczepir et al.
