Abstract
Meloidogyne chitwoodi causes significant yield losses in many crops and the chemical control measures currently used are less effective for this nematode. The activity of aqueous extracts (0.8 mg/mL) of one-month-old (R1M) and two-months-old roots and immature fruits (F) of Solanum linnaeanum (Sl) and S. sisymbriifolium cv. Sis 6001 (Ss) were tested on hatching, mortality, infectivity and reproduction of M. chitwoodi. The extracts selected reduced the hatching of second-stage juveniles (J2) (cumulative hatching of 40% for Sl R1M and 24% for Ss F) but did not affect J2 mortality. However, infectivity of J2 exposed to the selected extracts, during 4 and 7 days, was lower (3% and 0% for Sl R1M and 0% and 0% for Ss F) compared to the control (23% and 3%). Reproduction was affected only after 7 days of exposure (reproduction factor (RF) was 7 for Sl R1M and 3 for Ss F) compared to the control (RF = 11). The results suggest that the selected Solanum extracts are effective and can be a useful tool in sustainable M. chitwoodi management. This is the first report on the efficacy of S. linnaeanum and S. sisymbriifolium extracts against root-knot nematodes.

Abstract
Globodera pallida, the pale cyst nematode, is a regulated potato pest which is economically detrimental. Restrictions on use of the soil fumigant methyl bromide and lack of resistant russet type varieties for U.S. markets have led to investigations of alternative strategies to control this pest. The efficacy of Brassica juncea seed meal extract (SME; 0, 0.14, 0.28, 0.56, 1.12, and 2.24 t/ha) was studied, either alone or in combination with the trap crop Solanum sisymbriifolium under greenhouse and field conditions. The impact of the application of SME pre- or postplanting of S. sisymbriifolium was also determined. S. sisymbriifolium only induced hatch of G. pallida and significantly fewer (up to 57 and 55% in pre- and postplant experiments, respectively) encysted eggs remained at termination of the experiment compared with the untreated control. However, when SME was applied preplant, the encysted eggs remained unchanged, which may indicate that SME inhibited egg hatch in the presence of S. sisymbriifolium. When applied individually, S. sisymbriifolium in all experiments, or SME at all rates tested in the greenhouse or 0.56 t/ha or higher rates of SME in the field, significantly reduced the viability, hatch, and reproduction of G. pallida. Combined treatment with S. sisymbriifolium and SME at lower rates (0.14 t/ha for preplant or 0.56 t/ha or less for the greenhouse postplant experiment) reduced G. pallida egg hatch further than each strategy alone. In the field, a combination of S. sisymbriifolium and SME at 1.12 t/ha or less reduced G. pallida more effectively than SME alone. SME alone applied at higher rates (0.56 and 1.12 t/ha) in preplant greenhouse trials, whether or not combined with S. sisymbriifolium, eliminated G. pallida reproduction. Under field conditions, SME applied at a rate of 1.12 t/ha highly reduced G. pallida reproduction compared with the untreated control by 97 and 61% in 2019 and 2020, respectively. Furthermore, reproduction of G. pallida was eliminated when SME was combined with S. sisymbriifolium. Our results indicated that a combination of SME and S. sisymbriifolium reduces the amount of SME needed to control G. pallida and further decreases the potential reserve of the viable population remaining after individual treatment with each strategy.

Abstract
The pale cyst nematode Globodera pallida is a highly specialized, economically important pest for potato production. The specialized hatching requirements, ability to adapt, and the loss of effective control strategies such as methyl bromide fumigation increase the challenge to eradicate G. pallida in Idaho. Without a suitable host, this nematode can remain dormant as encysted eggs in soil for up to 20 years. In this study, we first demonstrated that Sinapis alba seed meal extract (SME) or 4-hydroxybenzyl alcohol (HBA), under laboratory and greenhouse conditions, enhances G. pallida egg hatch rate when exposed to potato root diffusate (PRD). This hatch rate enhancement in the presence of PRD is speculated to be due to an increase in egg-shell permeability. We then tested the efficacy of (i) Solanum sisymbriifolium following prior treatment with S. alba SME (0 and 4.48 t/ha) or HBA (0 and 0.12 t/ha) and (ii) Brassica juncea SME (0, 0.14, 0.56, and 1.12 t/ha) following HBA treatment (0 and 4.48 t/ha) on egg viability, hatch rate, and reproduction of G. pallida encysted eggs. S. sisymbriifolium alone reduced the number of encysted eggs compared to the nontreated control by up to 67%, indicating that this trap crop triggered G. pallida eggs to hatch. When combined with S. alba SME or HBA, S. sisymbriifolium significantly reduced egg count, hatch rate, and viability more than S. sisymbriifolium alone. The combination of S. sisymbriifolium with HBA or S. alba SME eliminated G. pallida reproduction on the susceptible potato. All the tested rates of B. juncea SME alone or with HBA reduced egg hatch rate, viability, and reproduction compared to the nontreated control. Combining HBA and B. juncea SME further significantly reduced egg hatch rate, viability, and reproduction than those rates of B. juncea SME alone.

Abstract
The suborder Heteroptera (Hemiptera) includes zoophagous and zoophytophagous species which conform diverse natural enemies' systems with potential to control several horticultural pests. In this study, we report the assemblage structure of heteropteran bugs species inhabiting open-field and greenhouse organic tomato crops and one common adjacent non-crop solanaceous plant, Solanum sisymbriifolium, in North Buenos Aires province, Argentina, aimed to select promissory biocontrol species. Biweekly direct inspection of selected plants was carried out during a 3-year period (2017-2019) to collect hemipteran nymphs and adults. As a result, nine species and morphospecies belonging to Berytidae (zoophytophagous), Lygaeidae (phytophagous), and Miridae (phytophagous and zoophytophagous) were found, with ≥ 75% of species belonging to the latter family. The zoophytophagous mirid Tupiocoris cucurbitaceus (Spinola) was the most frequent and dominant species in all sites studied. Among the phytophagous species, Nysius simulans Stål was mostly present in greenhouse crops. The community found in greenhouse tomato crops was more diverse than that registered in open-field crops. The characterization of the heteropteran complex in organic tomato farms provides basic knowledge necessary to design pest control strategies in the region studied.

Abstract
ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE Solanum sisymbriifolium Lam., is used in Paraguayan folk medicine claiming antihypertensive and diuretic properties. AIM OF THE STUDY This study aimed to determine the influence of chronic oral administration of the crude root extract and saponins obtained from S. sisymbriifolium Lam., on the blood pressure of male and female rats with hypertension induced by L-NAME, and its consequences on diuresis, the body weight, blood glucose, and level of serum parameters of liver and kidney functionality. MATERIALS AND METHODS Wistar rats were randomly divided into seven male, and seven female groups (8 animals each), which received as 6-week pretreatment, 0.9% saline solution (two groups; 0.1mL/10 g of b.w.), L-arginine (100.0 mg/kg/day), enalapril (15.0 mg/kg/day), crude extract (CESs 100.0 mg/kg/day), and saponin purified fraction (1.0, and 10.0 mg/kg/day), and treated with L-NAME (20 mg/kg/day/i.p.) twice, 1, and 6 h after pre-treatment. The animals' body weight, glycemia, and blood pressure were recorded weekly, while serum, hepatic, renal, and histological parameters were analyzed at the end of 6-week of treatment. RESULTS A protective effect of CESs (100.0 mg/kg/day), and saponins (1.0, and 10.0 mg/kg/day) against hypertension induced by L-NAME was verified in the systolic, diastolic, and mean blood pressure values, which were significantly lower than the positive L-NAME-hypertensive control group (male and female) at the end of the 6-week treatment. Also, pretreatment with enalapril (15.0 mg/kg/day) induced an efficient protective activity, which validates the method used. Likewise, the volume of urine, creatinine, uric acid, urea, and electrolyte excretion was enhanced at the end of 6-week of treatment in concordance with the reduction in serum level of the same parameters, compatible with the improvement of the diuretic activity. The glycemia, body weight, heart rate, and functional hepato-renal parameters were not modified after a 6-week of treatment, in comparison to the control group, indicating relatively acceptable harmless properties of CESs and saponins. Interestingly, the HDL level in females was increased in contrast to male rats by chronic saponins treatment when compared with the negative control group. CONCLUSIONS It can be concluded that either the increment in blood pressure (systolic, diastolic, and median) or cardiorenal remodeling effects in male and female rats submitted to L-NAME-induced hypertensive condition, were prevented and well-preserved without a significant variation during a period of 6-week of pretreatment with CESs and saponins pretreatments. Likewise, an important diuretic effect was revealed after this period of treatment.

Abstract
Understanding belowground chemical interactions between plant roots and plant-parasitic nematodes is immensely important for sustainable crop production and soilborne pest management. Due to metabolic diversity and ever-changing dynamics of root exudate composition, the impact of only certain molecules, such as nematode hatching factors, repellents, and attractants, has been examined in detail. Root exudates are a rich source of biologically active compounds, which plants use to shape their ecological interactions. However, the impact of these compounds on nematode parasitic behavior is poorly understood. In this study, we specifically address this knowledge gap in two cyst nematodes, Globodera pallida, a potato cyst nematode and the newly described species, Globodera ellingtonae. Globodera pallida is a devastating pest of potato (Solanum tuberosum) worldwide, whereas potato is a host for G. ellingtonae, but its pathogenicity remains to be determined. We compared the behavior of juveniles (J2s) hatched in response to root exudates from a susceptible potato cv. Desirée, a resistant potato cv. Innovator, and an immune trap crop Solanum sisymbriifolium (litchi tomato - a wild potato relative). Root secretions from S. sisymbriifolium greatly reduced the infection rate on a susceptible host for both Globodera spp. Juvenile motility was also significantly influenced in a host-dependent manner. However, reproduction on a susceptible host from juveniles hatched in S. sisymbriifolium root exudates was not affected, nor was the number of encysted eggs from progeny cysts. Transcriptome analysis by using RNA-sequencing (RNA-seq) revealed the molecular basis of root exudate-mediated modulation of nematode behavior. Differentially expressed genes are grouped into two major categories: genes showing characteristics of effectors and genes involved in stress responses and xenobiotic metabolism. To our knowledge, this is the first study that shows genome-wide root exudate-specific transcriptional changes in hatched preparasitic juveniles of plant-parasitic nematodes. This research provides a better understanding of the correlation between exudates from different plants and their impact on nematode behavior prior to the root invasion and supports the hypothesis that root exudates play an important role in plant-nematode interactions.

Abstract
Potato cyst nematodes (PCNs), such as Globodera pallida and Globodera rostochiensis, are some of the most agriculturally and economically important pests of potato. Upon nematode infection, a principal component of plant defense is the generation of the reactive oxygen species (ROSs). ROSs are highly toxic molecules that cause damage to pathogens and host alike. To infect the plant, nematodes protect themselves from ROSs by activating their own antioxidant processes and ROS scavenging enzymes. One of these enzymes is a superoxide dismutase (SOD; EC 1.15.1.1), which prevents cellular damage by catalyzing conversion of the superoxide radical (O2-·) to hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) and molecular oxygen (O2). We have isolated a putatively secreted isoform of a Cu-Zn SOD (SOD-3) from G. pallida and localized the expression of this gene in the posterior region of the nematode. Furthermore, we studied the expression of the SOD-3 gene during early parasitic stages of infection (24 to 72 h) in the susceptible potato cultivar Desiree, the resistant potato cultivar Innovator, and an immune host, Solanum sisymbriifolium. The SOD-3 gene was significantly upregulated, regardless of the host type; however, the expression pattern differed between the susceptible and the resistant or immune hosts. This finding suggests that SOD-3 gene is responding to infection in plant roots differently depending on whether the nematode is experiencing a compatible or an incompatible interaction.

Abstract
Root-knot nematodes (Meloidogyne spp.) are important contributors to yield reduction in tomato. Though resistant cultivars to common species (Meloidogyne arenaria, M. incognita, and M. javanica) are available, they are not effective against other major species of root-knot nematodes. Cultivars or lines of Solanum sisymbriifolium were examined to assess the presence and level of resistance to five major species: M. arenaria race 1, M. incognita race 3, M. haplanaria, M. javanica, and M. enterolobii. Differences in S. sisymbriifolium response to the nematode infection were apparent when susceptibility or resistance was classified by the egg counts per gram fresh weight of root and the multiplication rate of the nematodes. The cultivar Diamond was highly susceptible, Quattro and White Star were susceptible, while Sis Syn II was resistant to M. arenaria. Quattro, White Star, and Sis Syn II exhibited a moderate to high level of resistance to M. incognita but the nematode increased 2.5-fold from the initial population of the M. incognita on Diamond. All S. sisymbriifolium cultivars were highly resistant to both M. haplanaria and M. enterolobii, while highly susceptible to M. javanica. A microplot study under field conditions using Sis Syn II confirmed that M. arenaria, M. incognita, and M. haplanaria were not pathogenic on the plant. Likewise, an examination on cross-sections of galled root tissues confirmed the susceptibility and resistance of S. sisymbriifolium lines to Meloidogyne spp. Using S. sisymbriifolium as a resistant rootstock or a new source of resistance may result in the development of nonchemical and sustainable management strategies to protect the tomato crop.

Abstract
Verticillium wilt, caused by the soil-borne fungus Verticillium dahliae, is a devastating disease of eggplant (Solanum spp.) and causes substantial losses worldwide. Although some genes or biological processes involved in the interaction between eggplant and V. dahliae have been identified in some studies, the underlying molecular mechanism is not yet clear. Here, we monitored the transcriptomic profiles of the roots of resistant S. sisymbriifolium plants challenged with V. dahliae. Based on the measurements of physiological indexes (T-SOD, POD and SSs), three time points were selected and subsequently divided into two stages (S_12 h vs. S_0 h and S_48 h vs. S_12 h). KEGG enrichment analysis of the DEGs revealed several genes putatively involved in regulating plant-V. dahliae interactions, including mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) genes (MEKK1 and MAP2K1), WRKY genes (WRKY22 and WRKY33) and cytochrome P450 (CYP) genes (CYP73A/C4H, CYP98A/C3'H and CYP84A/F5H). In addition, a subset of genes that play an important role in activating V. dahliae defence responses, including Ve genes as well as genes encoding PR proteins and TFs, were screened and are discussed. These results will help to identify key resistance genes and will contribute to a further understanding of molecular mechanisms of the S. sisymbriifolium resistance response to V. dahliae.

Abstract
Plant protoplast technology is being investigated as a means of transferring root-knot nematode resistance factors from Solanum sisymbriifolium into the susceptible S. melongena. Solanum sisymbriifolium plants regenerated from callus lost resistance to Meloidogyne javanica but retained resistance to M. incognita. Tomato plants cloned from leaf discs of the root-knot nematode resistant 'Patriot' were completely susceptible to M. incognita, while sections of stems and leaves rooted in sand in the absence of growth hormones retained resistance. Changes in resistance persisted for three generations. It is postulated that the exogenous hormonal constituents of the culture medium are modifying the expression of genetic resistance.
