Crop productivity has been limited by various phytosanitary diseases, with some caused by nematodes, in particular root-knot nematode (Meloidogyne spp.). During March 2014, common bean plants (cv. IPR Gralha) exhibiting symptoms of stunting, leaf yellowing, and numerous galls caused by root-knot nematode were detected and sampled in Caiçara County (27°16′ S; 53°27′ W), Northwest Rio Grande do Sul State, Brazil. The identification of Meloidogyne was conducted using esterase phenotypes (n = 20) (Carneiro and Almeida 2001), morphological analyses of females by perineal patterns (n = 20), morphological measurement of second-stage juveniles (J2) (n = 20), and amplification of the D2-D3 fragment of the 28S rRNA gene (primer set: D2A 5′-ACAAGTACCGTGAGGGAAAGTTG-3′ and D3B 5′-TCGGAAGGAACCAGCTACTA-3′) (De Ley et al. 1999). In addition, the root and soil samples were processed to determine the population density of nematode eggs and juveniles. The Meloidogyne population density was 425 eggs and J2 per gram of fresh roots and 234 J2 per 100 cm3 of soil. The esterase activity showed esterase pattern with three bands (Rm = 0.91, 1.05, and 1.23) corresponded to phenotype E3 of M. ethiopica (Carneiro et al. 2004). The perineal patterns of females with a moderately high-to-high dorsal arch showed smooth, widely spaced striae, similar to the description of M. ethiopica. The J2 had the following morphometric characteristics: length (L) = 485.75 ± 10.2 (320 to 510) µm, a = 25.1 ± 0.30 (21.5 to 28.0), c = 5.2 ± 0.86 (3.8 to 10.1), dorsal esophageal gland orifice (DGO) = 2.3 ± 0.65 (1.8 to 3.1) µm, stylet = 12.1 ± 0.9 (11.1 to 13.6) µm, tail length = 61.2 ± 0.84 μm (50.1 to 69.4) µm, and hyaline tail terminus = 13.1 ± 1.1 (12.3 to 14.8) µm. The DNA sequence of ∼750 bp fragment was obtained and deposited in the GenBank (accession no. KX377958). The sequence was compared with sequence availability in GenBank. The fragment showed 100% identity with the sequence of M. ethiopica isolates from Brazil (KF482372) and Chile (KF482373). The confirmation of nematode species identification was confirmed by PCR species-specific SCAR using a primer set meth-F (5′-ATGCAGCCGCAGGGAACGTAGTTG-3′) and meth-R (5′-GTTGTTTCATGTGCTTCGGCATC-3′). The PCR product was ∼350 bp for the SCAR, which was identical to previously reported for M. ethiopica (Correa et al. 2014). To confirm parasitization of common been by M. ethiopica, the greenhouse tests were conducted. Plantlets of common been cv. PR Gralha were maintained in eight pots containing sterilized soil and the pots were inoculated with 5,000 eggs/J2 of the M. ethiopica population. Noninoculated control was included in the test. After 60 days, all inoculated plants showed symptoms of chlorosis and reduced growth (reduction of approximately 36% compared with noninoculated control). Galling symptoms on the roots were similar to those observed in the field, and the nematode reproduction factor (RF = final population/initial population) was 18.9. The noninoculated plants did not present galls on the roots and their development was not affected. To our knowledge, this is the first report of M. ethiopica parasitizing common bean roots in Brazil. This finding is of great importance to Brazilian agriculture, since this nematode may damage common bean plants and become an additional problem for this crop.References:Carneiro, R. M. D.
