Strain Genotype Species Description
LKC28 Caenorhabditis brenneri. C. brenneri Male-female strain. Isolated in 2003 by Lynn Carta from material which was intercepted by Hernan Ruiz, a Plant Pathologist at Miami Inspection Station of USDA-APHIS-PPQ. The nematodes came from Liriope roots grown in the nursery Liriope de Costa Rica, La Gloria de Aguas Zarcas, Vereda Turrucares, Provincia de Alajuela, Costa Rica, Central America. The strain is conspecific with CB5161 based on mating tests. sp. 4 in Kiontke and Sudhaus Wormbook Ecology chapter.
RGD1 Caenorhabditis angaria C. angaria Male-female strain. This strain is conspecific with PS1010 by mating tests. It was established from a single female. The species was isolated in Sept 2003 by Robin Giblin Davis from an individual of the weevil Metamasius hemipterus. The beetle was collected in Fort Lauderdale, FL. sp. 3 in Kiontke and Sudhaus Wormbook Ecology chapter.
RGD2 Caenorhabditis angaria C. angaria Male-female strain. The species was isolated in Sept 2003 by Robin Giblin Davis from an individual of the weevil Metamasius hemipterus. The beetle was collected in Fort Lauderdale, FL. It was established from a single female. Morphology is identical to RGD1 and PS1010 but mating tests have not been performed with this strain.
SB129 Caenorhabditis brenneri. C. brenneri Male-female strain. Isolated in Bohorok, Sumatra from humus-like material probably from banana plants by P. Blum in June 1975. Conspecific with CB5161 by mating tests, and with CB5161, LKC28 and SB280 by RNA Polymerase II largest subunit sequence. sp. 4 in Kiontke and Sudhaus Wormbook Ecology chapter.
SB280 Caenorhabditis brenneri. C. brenneri Male-female strain. Isolated by W. Sudhaus on Guadeloupe from rotting banana leaves on June 16, 1996. Conspecific with CB5161 by mating tests, and with CB5161, LKC28 and SB129 by RNA Polymerase II largest subunit sequence. sp. 4 in Kiontke and Sudhaus Wormbook Ecology chapter.
