Fig 2 Root sections of Coffea canephora clonal Slides: 1 Download presentation Fig. 2. Root sections of Coffea canephora clonal variety clone 14 (resistant) infested with Meloidogyne paranaensis. A, C, D, E, and G, Toluidine blue staining; B, F, and H, UV fluorescence observation. A and B, Second-stage juvenile (J 2) nematode located in the root cortex and surrounded by bluestained degraded cells (A) which display a yellow fluorescence under UV illumination (B); C, D, E, F, G, and H, nematodes present in the vascular cylinder. Giant cells can be observed 8 days after inoculation associated with the presence of nematodes (C). A blue-gray fluorescence is seen in cells near the nematode and in walls of vessels (F and H); D, E, and G, parenchyma cells close to J 2 s exhibiting a dark-stained material, suggesting severe alteration of the cytoplasm; E and G, giant cells showing retracted cytoplasm containing numerous vacuoles. N = nematode, HR = hypersensitive reaction indicating cell death (cd), co = cortex, gc = giant cells, vc = vascular cylinder, va = vacuole. Sections visualized under UV light (B, F, and H) and after staining with toluidine blue (A, C, D, E, and G). Published in: Edriana A. Lima; Cleber Furlanetto; Michel Nicole; Ana C. M. M.
