Thorne's meadow nematode (Thorne's root-lesion nematode; Pratylenchus thornei) is a plant pathogenic nematode.[1](p276)
Hosts
Hosts include Aegilops geniculata (ovate goatgrass) and Triticum aestivum (cultivated wheat).[1](p276)
Aegilops geniculata enjoys moderate resistance to this nematode.[1](p276) Ae. geniculata is thus used as a wild source of resistance for introgression into cultivated wheat.[1](p276)
