- Abstract
Worldwide, the most important phytoparasitic nematode genus is Meloidogyne, since it affects more than 3000 plant species and its infection is characterized by the formation of galls in the root of the infected plant. In Sinaloa,the current distribution of Meloidogyneis unknown, because the most recent reports are from the year 2000 and 2001, identifying the species M. incognita, M. arenaria, M. haplaand M. javanica, distributed in the state. In the present work of investigation,the objectives were to identify morphologically and molecularly the species of the root-knot nematode (Meloidogynespp.), as well as, to determine its distribution in the culture of tomato (Solanum lycopersicumL), in Sinaloa, Mexico. Cultivatedlots with tomato were sampled in the different horticultural zones of Sinaloa, Mexico, during the agricultural cycles 2013-2014, 2014-2015, 2015-2016 and 2016-2017, in the open field, shade mesh and greenhouses, where samples of soil and roots, to performmorphological and molecular identification. The species identified in the samples collected were M. enterolobii, M. incognita and M. arenaria with 88, 10 and 2% incidence respectively. These results indicate that M. enterolobii, M. incognitaand M. arenariaare distributed in the state of Sinaloa in the tomato crop, being M. enterolobiithe predominant species.
