note = {The antagonistic relationship of Radopholus similis and seven mutualistic endophytes isolated from banana and plantain were investigated in a series of experiments. First, prior to field trials and further greenhouse experiments, the vegetative compatibility of endophytes identified as Fusarium oxysporum and known pathogenic F. oxysporum isolates was tested. Nitrate non-utilizing (nit) mutants were produced and crossed with complementary testers from pathogenic F. oxysporum f. sp. radicis-lycopersici, lycopersici and cubense strains. None of the endophytic F. oxysporum isolates formed heterokaryons with any of the pathogenic strains tested. The nematode-antagonistic endophytes are therefore not vegetatively compatible with the pathogenic strains, and can not exchange genetic information with them.
Second, the role of systemic induced resistance to nematode penetration and reproduction was tested in a series of split-root tests carried out in greenhouses in Germany and Costa Rica. The results revealed that, of the three T. atroviride (MT-20, ET-35 and S2) and four F. oxysporum (MF-25, MF-40, S9 and P12) isolates tested, only MT-20 and S2 seemed to induce systemic effects in Musa AAA cv. ‘Valery’ plants. S2 significantly and consistently reduced R. similis penetration, 10 days after nematode inoculation, while MT-20 significantly reduced nematode reproduction over a 9 week period. None of the tested F. oxysporum isolates induced systemic resistance to nematode penetration or reproduction.
Third, the possible transfer of nematode suppression from endophyte-inoculated Musa AAA cv. ‘Valery’ mother plants to daughter plants (suckers) in the field was studied. As part of a large scale field trial looking at the suppression of nematodes in the field, mother plants were inoculated with endophytes prior to field transfer, and nematode populations monitored for 7 months. At the first de-suckering, sword suckers were removed from the field and grown in the greenhouse, where they were later challenged with R. similis. Results from the field to greenhouse test indicated that, when nematode suppression is established in the field, this suppression is transferred from mother to daughter plants.
Finally, the effects of single and combined inoculations of two F. oxysporum and two T. atroviride on R. similis biocontrol in Musa AAA cv. ‘Williams’ and on plant growth of Musa AAA cvs. ‘Grand Nain’, ‘Valery’ and ‘Williams’ were investigated. Combining inoculations of mutualistic endophytes increased nematode control levels and plant growth in ‘Williams’ plants inoculated with both R. similis and fungi. Plant growth in the absence of R. similis was promoted by single and dual inoculations of T. atroviride isolates and by single inoculations of F. oxysporum isolates in ‘Grand Nain’, ‘Valery’ and ‘Williams’ plants. Dual inoculations of F. oxysporum and of all four endophytes did not positively affect plant growth.},
