Investigations into Peach Replant Disease and Nematophagous Fungi |
Nematodes are the most abundant animals on earth. They play important roles on chemical element cycling in the ecological systems, and therefore could be used as bioindicators for environmental evaluations. Some nematodes are animal parasitic that cause disesaes on human and many animals. As in agricultural system, more than 4000 species of the nematodes are pathogen to field crops or forest plants. These plant parasitic nematodes are responsible for more than 100 billlion US dollars worth of the yield loss worldwide annually. Naturally, plant-parasitic nematodes are considered important microbes when it comes to phytopathology researches.
While plant pathologists are tackling plant diseases, it is necessary to take all possible factors into full considerations for the best management solution. Such factors include environment, host plants, pathogen/ pest, time, and etc. With the application of research methodology of microbial ecology concept, plant pathologists can study the microbiome in each environment with proper technique, reveal the interactions among the microbial populations, the plant and other related species, and finally, put the informative knowledge into agricultural management strategy development.
With the passion of nematodes and agriculture, and seeing the value of microbiology, the Nematology and Microbial Ecology Laboratory was established in 2015 by Dr. Jiue-in Yang. We study the interaction among plant parasitic nematodes, plants and other microbes. We are interested in 1) The microbiome associated with plant nematodes, host plant, and the surrounding rhizosphere, 2) Nematode management strategy development, 3) The nematode pathogenic behaviors and the mechanisms behind.
