Morphological and Biochemical Changes in the Mediterranean Cereal Cyst Nematode () during Diapause.

The cereal cyst nematode () is becoming an economically important species in global cereal production as it is being identified in many new cereal cultivated areas and causes significant losses. Consequently, understanding its biology becomes crucial for researchers in identifying its vulnerabilities and implementing effective control measures. In the current study, different morphological and biochemical changes of cysts containing eggs with infective juveniles from a barley field in Jordan were studied during the summer of 2021, at two sample dates.

Bioinformatics analysis of ubiquitin expression protein gene from .

Ubiquitin expression protein DNA clone (Hl-UBI) was isolated from collected from North Jordan. Its sequence of 285 nucleotides was also determined and deposited in the GeneBank. The 285-bp open reading frame coded for 76-amino acid protein having two domains; the ubiquitin domain and the C terminal extension.

Draft Genome Sequence of the Plant Growth-Promoting Pseudomonas punonensis Strain D1-6 Isolated from the Desert Plant Erodium hirtum in Jordan.

Pseudomonas punonensis strain D1-6 was isolated from roots of the desert plant Erodium hirtum, near the Dead Sea in Jordan. The genome of strain D1-6 reveals several key plant growth-promoting and herbicide-resistance genes, indicating a possible specialized role for this endophyte.

Morphological and morphometrical analysis of Heterodera spp. populations in Jordan.

Phenotypic diversity of five Jordanian populations of cyst nematodes, Heterodera spp. collected from five regions from Jordan (Ar-Ramtha, Madaba, Dana, Al-Karak, and Jerash) was investigated. Soil samples were collected from one representative field in each region.

Phosphonate fertilizers suppressed root knot nematodes Meloidogyne javanica and M. incognita.

The efficacy of the phosphonate fertilizers, Calphos(®) (a.i. calcium phosphonate), Magphos(®) (a.
