Regulation of root-Knot nematode behavior by seed-coat mucilage-derived attractants

Tsai, Allen Yi-Lun Higaki, Takumi Nguyen, Chinh Nghia

Seed exudates influence the behavior of soil organisms, buthowthisoccurs remains unclear, particularly for multicellular animals. Here we show that compounds associated with Arabidopsis seed-coat mucilage regulate the behavior of soil-borne animals, specifically root-knot nematodes (RKNs). Infective RKN J2 larvae actively travel toward...
