Tylenchorhynchus nudus

Tylenchorhynchus nudus is pathogenic nematode stunting plant growth. It occurs in South Dakota and infects the roots of mainly grass species.[1][2]

In bentgrass[3] and Kentucky bluegrass[4] it causes decreases in both root growth. In Kentucky bluegrass it also inhibits shoot growth, and growth is further inhibited under dry conditions.[4] Tylenchorhynchus nudus appears to modulate the effects of the fungus Magnaporthe poae on plant roots.[5]

Under laboratory conditions, T. nudus can increase eight-fold over the time of 4 months and appears to be minimally impacted by environmental conditions.[4]
