found: Meloidogne Web site, Nov. 8, 2007(Meloidogyne (Goeldi, 1892), synonyms: Caconema, Hypsoperine. History: 897: Cornu described a root-knot nematode as Anguillula marioni; 1884: Muller decided root-knot nematode was the same as Greeff's root-galling nematode (A. radicicola) and that both should be Heterodera radicicola; 1932: Goodey decided that use of H. radicicola was incorrect [...] as original H. radicicola was not a root-knot nematode. He renamed it Heterodera marioni; 1949: Chitwood removed them from Heterodera on the basis that they differed from cyst nematodes. Sine the oldest name for the genus was Goeld's Meloidogne, that name had precedence.)
found: Web. 3(root-knot nematodes or root-knot eelworms: any of several small plant-parasitic nematodes formerly regarded as varieties of a single species (Heterodera marioni) but now usu. referred as separate species to the related genus Meloidogyne, invading roots of most cultivated and wild plants, and inducing the formation of galls in which they live and on which they feed.)
