The Newcastle University research output collection, currently available on ePrints, will shortly be moving to a new open repository platform, Figshare. To prepare for the data migration we have paused adding new content to ePrints, and will resume once the new repository is launched. During this time you will continue to have access to ePrints (but no new content will appear). We will share updates here when available.

Abstract

The phylogeny of holocarpic nematode parasites within the Oomycota was determined by comparing their small ribosomal (rRNA) genes, as well as their overall morphology and fine structure. The nematode parasites fell into 3 major clades. Haptoglossa belonged to the basal clade of the whole phylum. Depending upon the species included in the analysis a zoosporic Chlamydomyzium sp. was located basally to either of the main peronosporalean or saprolegnialian clades. The Myzocytiopsis and Lagenidium species clustered within a monophyletic clade corresponding with the Family Pythiales within the 'peronosporalean clade (galaxy)'.
