“…This approach will require long rotational cycles to significantly lower the nematode population and therefore crop rotation is not always feasible due to the economic and resource constraints associated with cotton production [1,11]. Growing resistant Upland cotton cultivars or combining the application of nematicides with the use of resistant cultivars has been reported as an effective management strategy [1,11,[17][18][19]. McCulloch et al (2021) reported that resistant cultivars significantly suppress the reniform nematode population resulting in a 26% seedcotton yield increase compared to susceptible controls [20], whereas Koebernick et al (2021) reported 8-20% yield increase using a resistant cultivar with a nematicide application during planting [17].…”

Reniform nematode (Rotylenchulus reniformis) is an important microparasite for Upland cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) production. Growing resistant cultivars is the most economical management method, but only a few G. barbadense genotypes and some diploid Gossypium species confer high levels of resistance. This study conducted a transcriptome analysis of resistant genotypes to identify genes involved in host plant defense. Seedlings of G. arboreum accessions PI 529728 (A2-100) and PI 615699 (A2-190), and G. barbadense genotypes PI 608139 (GB 713) and PI 163608 (TX 110), were inoculated with the reniform nematode population MSRR04 and root samples were collected on the fifth (D5) and ninth (D9) day after inoculation. Differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were identified by comparing root transcriptomes from inoculated plants with those from non-inoculated plants. Accessions A2-100 and A2-190 showed 52 and 29 DEGs on D5, respectively, with 14 DEGs in common, and 18 DEGs for A2-100 and 11 DEGs for A2-190 on chromosome 5. On D9, four DEGs were found in A2-100 and two DEGs in A2-190. For GB 713, 52 and 43 DEGs were found, and for TX 110, 29 and 117 DEGs were observed on D5 and D9, respectively. Six DEGs were common at the two sampling times for these genotypes. Some DEGs were identified as Meloidogyne-induced cotton (MIC) 3 and 4, resistance gene analogs, or receptor-like proteins. Other DEGs have potential roles in plant defense, such as peroxidases, programmed cell death, pathogenesis related proteins, and systemic acquired resistance. Further research on these DEGs will aid in understanding the mechanisms of resistance to explore new applications for the development of resistant cultivars.
