This project investigates how plant cells respond to mechanical damage caused by plant-parasitic nematodes, focusing on the production of physical barriers like lignin and suberin. By using advanced laser ablation technology, it aims to develop resistant plants to mitigate crop losses from these pests.
Plant-parasitic nematodes are microscopic organisms with exceptionally broad host range that pose major challenge to global agriculture, generate a predicted loss of 12.3 percent, equivalent to $157 billion each year.
The losses caused by nematodes are further enhanced when they form disease-complexes with other microbes.
Endoparasitic cyst nematodes are one of two most devastating groups, infecting the roots of economically important plants.
The nematodes are a persistent problem because they h…
