The genome of the migratory nematode, Radopholus similis, reveals signatures of close association to the sedentary cyst nematodes.

Radopholus similis, commonly known as the burrowing nematode, is an important pest of myriad crops and ornamentals including banana (Musa spp.) and Citrus spp. In order to characterize the potential role of putative effectors encoded by R. similis genes we compared predicted proteins from a draft R....
