Population genomics supports clonal reproduction and multiple independent gains and losses of parasitic abilities in the most devastating nematode pest
Abstract The root‐knot nematodes are the most devastating worms to worldwide agriculture with Meloidogyne incognita being the most widely distributed and damaging species. This parasitic and ecological success seems surprising given its supposed obligatory clonal reproduction. Clonal reproduction ha...
