Sogut, M.A. and Devran, Z., 2011. Distribution and Molecular Identification of Root Lesion Nematodes in Temperate Fruit Orchards of Turkey. Nematropica 41:91-99. Root lesion nematodes are important migratory endoparasitic nematodes attacking temperate fruits in the West Mediterranean region of Turkey. A rapid and accurate method to identify Pratylenchus to the species level is necessary to develop management strategies. Seventy-eight populations of the root lesion nematode were collected from the temperate fruit production region in Turkey, including fruit orchards in Isparta and Antalya provinces. Species-specific primers and rDNA primers were used to identify Pratylenchus spp. Distribution ratios of the sampled root lesion nematode populations were 50%, 45%, 2.5% and 2.5% for P. thornei, P. neglectus, P. penetrans, and P. crenatus, respectively. The present study indicated that P. thornei and P. neglectus were widespread on temperate fruits in the West Mediterranean region of Turkey. Sogut, M.A. and Devran, Z., 2011. Distribucion e Identificacion Molecular de Pratylenchus en frutales de Turquia. Nematropica 41:91-99. Los nematodos lesionadores son endoparasitos migratorios de importancia que atacan los frutales de clima templado en la region Mediterranea Occidental de Turquia. Se requiere un metodo confiable y rapido para identificar las species de Pratylenchus que permita desarrollar estrategias de manejo. Se colectaron 78 poblaciones de Pratylenchus de la region productora de frutas en Turquia, incluyendo muestras de frutales en las provincias de Isparta y Antalya. Se utilizaron cebadores especificos de especie y las regiones de rDNA para identificar las species de Pratylenchus. La distribucion de frecuencia de especies hallada en las poblaciones fue de 50%, 45%, 2.5% y 2.5% para P. thornei, P. neglectus, P. penetrans y P. crenatus, respectivamente. Este estudio indica que P. thornei y P. neglectus se encuentran ampliamente distribuidas en frutales de clima templado en la region Mediterranea Occidental de Turquia.
