Primera detección en Cuba de Hemicriconemoides mangiferae
Main Article Content
Abstract
As part of phytosanitary protection for an improvement program of fruit crops in Granma province, plant parasitic associated nematodes have been evaluated on Persea americana Mill. var. Americana, from a nursery located at Buey Arriba municipality. Nematodes of Criconematidae family were observed in the samples received. Specimens had a cuticular sheath which is characteristic of Hemicriconemoides Chitwood & Birchfield genus. Female with small cylindrical body, tapering towards ends, slightly arcuate, cuticular annuls 132-140 (133,8); length 0,48-0,53 (0,50) mm; spear 79-81 (79,9) μm long with basal knobs anteriorly directed, anchor-like shaped; lip region anteriorly flattened; excretory pore on annuli 34-35 (34,2); vulva on annuls 11-12 (11,6) and anus on annuls 7-8 (7,2) from tail terminus, with 4-5 (4,4) annuls between both. These characteristics corresponded with Hemicriconemoides mangiferae Siddiqi. This is the first report of the species in Cuba.
