This study identifies parallel large deletions in virulent M. incognita isolates that correlate with gene loss and virulence against Mi-1.2 resistance in tomato.

The paper assembles polyploid nematode genomes using long-read sequencing and identifies novel telomeric repeats that replace the conserved (TTAGGC)n sequence.

This study investigates histone modifications in the plant-parasitic nematode Meloidogyne incognita to understand their role in development and parasitism, revealing their impact on gene expression and chromatin structure.
