Ecological And Morphological Differentiation Among Coi Haplotype Groups In The Plant Parasitic Nematode Species Mesocriconema Xenoplax, Julianne N. Matczyszyn, Timothy Harris, Kirsten S. Powers, Sydney E. Everhart, Thomas O. Powers Dec 2021

Ecological And Morphological Differentiation Among Coi Haplotype Groups In The Plant Parasitic Nematode Species Mesocriconema Xenoplax, Julianne N. Matczyszyn, Timothy Harris, Kirsten S. Powers, Sydney E. Everhart, Thomas O. Powers

Department of Plant Pathology: Faculty Publications

DNA barcoding with the mitochondrial COI gene reveals distinct haplotype subgroups within the monophyletic and parthenogenetic nematode species, Mesocriconema xenoplax. Biological attributes of these haplotype groups (HG) have not been explored. An analysis of M. xenoplax from 40 North American sites representing both native plant communities and agroecosystems was conducted to identify possible subgroup associations with ecological, physiological, or geographic factors. A dataset of 132 M. xenoplax specimens was used to generate sequences of a 712 bp region of the cytochrome oxidase subunit I gene. Maximum-likelihood and Bayesian phylogenies recognized seven COI HG (≥99/0.99 posterior probability/bootstrap value). Species delimitation …
