Genome sequence of the root-knot nematode Meloidogyne luci

Abstract: Root-knot nematodes from the genus Meloidogyne are polyphagous plant endoparasites and agricultural pests of global importance. Here, we report the high-quality genome sequence of Meloidogyne luci population SI-Smartno V13. The resulting genome assembly of M. luci SI-Smartno V13 consists of 327 contigs, with an N50 contig length of 1,711,905 bp and a total assembly length of 209.16 Mb.

“…It will be very informative to examine additional high-quality genomes from additional Meloidogyne species, and other chromosomally-contiguous genomes from the Heteroderidae. Many Meloidogyne species are complex triploid and tetraploid hybrids, making assembly and interpretation difficult, but recent progress with long read data generation shows promise in generation of high quality genome estimates (Susič et al, 2020; Szitenberg et al, 2017).…”

“…However, to differentiate the relative contribution of each of these three features to the M. incognita TE load, it would be necessary to conduct comparative analysis with a same method on diploid asexuals, on polyploid sexuals as well as on diploid asexuals in the genus Meloidogyne, and ideally with and without hybrid origin. So far, genomic sequences are only available for other polyploid clonal species, which are all suspected to have a hybrid origin (Blanc-Mathieu et al 2017;Szitenberg et al 2017;Koutsovoulos et al 2019;Susič et al 2020), and, apart from that, only two diploid facultative sexual species (Opperman et al 2008;Somvanshi et al 2018). Hence, further sampling of Meloidogyne species with diverse ploidy levels and reproductive modes will be necessary to disentangle the relative contribution of ploidy level, hybridization and reproductive mode on the TE abundance and composition.…”

“…Over the years, the availability of several RKN genomes provided new resources for the identification of complete sets of candidate effectors in these species [20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28][29]. Although nematode effectors are very diverse, many share some common features with other secreted animal proteins, such as the presence of N-terminal signal peptides for secretion, or the absence of transmembrane domains.…”

“…Furthermore, the M. incognita genome employed in this original study [20] was later shown to be partially incomplete, with an improved version published afterwards [23]. Meanwhile, the availability of genome sequences for additional RKN species [24,[26][27][28][29], as well as for other plant-parasitic nematode species, including cyst nematodes [15,34,35], stem and bulb nematodes [36,37], or the more distantly related pine wilt disease nematode [38], greatly expanded the diversity of genomes for plant-parasitic nematode species. Similar genome sequencing efforts were also accomplished in the other nematode clades, including in animal parasites and free-living species, offering a novel opportunity for nematode comparative genomics.…”
