Meloidogyne incognita genes involved in the repellent behavior in response to ascr#9.

ABSTRACT: Meloidogyne incognita is one of the globally serious plant parasitic nematodes. New control measure is urgently needed to replace the common chemical control method. Ascarosides are pheromones regulating the nematodes' aggregation, avoidance, mating, dispersal and dauer recovery and formation. Ascr#9, one of the ascarosides, exhibits the potential to repel M. incognita. However, the nematode genes involved in the perception of ascr# 9 signal are totally unknown. In this study, the transcriptome of ascr#9-treated second stage M. incognita juveniles (J2s) was analyzed, 44 pathways were significantly affected, multiple ligand-receptor and mucin type O-glycan were induced, and olfactory transduction was disturbed. A total of 11 highly differentially expressed genes involved in neuroactive liga
