Review general characteristics of the genus Meloidogyne.
Althouigh similar to M. dunensis, it differs in having a larger perineal psattern and some morphometric ratios.
Reported median body size for this species (Length mm; width micrometers; weight micrograms) - Click:
Described from sand dunes, coastal foredunes near Oostvoorne, The Netherlands .
Sedentary endoparasite.
Feeding site establishment and development typical of genus.
Sand twitch grass (Elymus famus) Ammophila arenaria and, in host range tests, wheat (Triticum aestivum cv Minatret).
Ecophysiological Parameters:
Only very small galls are induced so root infection is not easily detected..
Resistance
