Identification of the economically important plant parasitic nematodes in vineyards areas of Izmir and Manisa provinces by morphological and molecular techniques

Abstract

In the study, economically important nematodes species found in vineyards of Izmir and Manisa provinces were identified using morphological and molecular techniques. A total of 188 plant roots and soil samples belonging to 147 samples from Manisa and 41 samples from Izmir provinces were analyzed. Meloidogyne javanica (Treub, 1885) Chitwood, 1919 (9.52%), Meloidogyne arenaria (Neal, 1889) Chitwood, 1949 (6.35%), Meloidogyne incognita (Kafoid & White, 1919) Chitwood, 1949 (3.18%) belonging to root-knot nematodes genus and Xiphinema pachtaicum (Tulaganov, 1938) Kirjanova, 1951 (87.30%), Xiphinema index Thorne & Allen, 1950 (19.05%) and Xiphinema italiae Meyl, 1953 (9.52%) belonging to dagger nematodes were identified by using morphological and molecular techniques. The prevalence and infestation ratio of these species were also high in the region. The results showed that the infestation ratio with root knot nematodes and dagger nematodes were found 34.01% and 31.71% in Manisa and Izmir vineyards, respectively. Our findings also indicated that heavily prevalence of plant parasitic nematodes were existed as 43.48% in the vineyard areas of Salihli district of Manisa and 66.67% in the vineyard area of Torbalı, Urla and Seferihisar districts of Izmir.
