Abstract

Phytonematodes, or plant-parasitic nematodes, are considered to be among the most important economic pathogens around the world. Plant tissues are the main source of food for plant parasitic nematodes. There are thousands of nematodes genera, but the root-knot nematodes (Meloidogyne spp.) were and still the most dominant and destructive genus around the world. Meloidogyne spp. Cause an estimated Annual Loss of $157 billion globally. Root-knot nematodes release certain proteins that modifying the plant cell wall to disrupt it, in addition to the mechanicals hearing by the style to fthenematode. The parasite is m proteins secreted by root- knot nematode might include plant cell wall modifying enzymes, besides proteins that are capable of localizing in the host plant cell nucleus, suppressors of host defense, proteins that can mimic plant proteins as reported in other cyst and root knot nematodes.
