Nematophagous fungi: Endoparasites ofRhabditis terricola

Abstract: Three techniques were compared for the recovery of endoparasitic nematophagous fungi from soil. The Baermann funnel technique (32 species) was superior to differential centrifugation (19 species) or soil sprinkling (21 species) in terms of number of species found. The main advantage of the Baermann funnel was in the recovery of lower fungi, especially those with flagellate states. In all, 40 species of endoparasites (70% of the known flora) were recorded. Thirty-two of those were found capable of attacking the… Show more

“…The sprinkled plate method is regarded as less efficient for recovery of endoparasitic fungi, and to recover larger amounts of endoparasitic fungi methods involving extraction of nematodes have to be performed [24, 25]. The nematodes from rhizosphere or root‐free soil were extracted, in 3 replicates, with the Baermann funnel method (see below).…”

“…K balanoides was reported as an endoparasite of Rhabditis terricola from various soils in Ontario (Barron, 1978), from moss in birchwood in England (Duddington, 1951) and from deciduous and coniferous leaf litter, old dung and coastal vegetation in Ireland (Gray and Duff, 1982;Gray, 1983c). The species occurred in 50 % of soil samples taken from agricultural soils in Westfalen, F.R.G.…”

“…The species was reported as an endoparasite of Rhabditis terricola in Ontario soils (Barron, 1978), as occurring on nematodes in peatland in Ireland (Gray, 1983c), and in the maritime Antarctic (Gray and Lewis Smith, 1984).…”

“…The identified fungi were stored in test tubes of 20 ml KIMAX ® , with sloping CMA and mineral oil Faga-Lab ® at 4 °C for later use in pathogenicity tests (Kerry , 2001). The times of appearance of nematophagous fungi vary considerably, and in order to recover most of the species in a particular sample, the plates must be examined daily for up to ten days to make sure to find potential nematophagous fungi in the soil including slow growth (Barron, 1978).…”

“…Preparations and identifications of nematophagous fungi were studied by direct observation under a compound microscope Nikon Eclipse E200 at different magnifications because some structures are accessible in minor magnification, structures like growing mycelium, conidiophores and conidial were compared, trapping structures was only possible to observe de las especies en una muestra en particular, las placas deben ser examinadas diariamente durante un máximo de diez días para asegurar encontrar los posibles hongos nematófagos del suelo incluyendo los de crecimiento lento (Barron, 1978).…”
