Plant-parasitic nematodes are a costly burden of crop production. Ubiquitous in nature, phytoparasitic nematodes are associated with nearly every important agricultural crop and represent a significant constraint on global food security. Population genetics is a key discipline in plant nematology to understand aspects of the life strategies of...

Potato cyst nematodes induce changes in gene expression after infecting the roots. For studying gene expression, reverse transcription quantitative real-time PCR (RT-qPCR) is now a standard method. However, for accurate quantication of transcripts, a set of internal control genes, stable under different experimental conditions, is necessary for...
