Project description:In this experiment we sequence the whole genome DNA of 28 unique populations of the root-knot nematode Meloidogyne hapla to investigate their genetic diversity using illumina sequencing. The hapla populations came from various locations, mostly in the Netherlands and Europe. The nematodes were maintained on tomato cv. Money Maker in the greenhouse of Wageningen University. After DNA extraction, DNA was sent for sequencing. The resulting sequence was used for calling variants and genetic analysis.
