Thorne's meadow nematode (Thorne's root-lesion nematode; Pratylenchus thornei) is a plant pathogenic nematode.[1]: 276
Hosts
Hosts include Aegilops geniculata (ovate goatgrass) and Triticum aestivum (cultivated wheat).[1]: 276
Aegilops geniculata enjoys moderate resistance to this nematode.[1]: 276 Ae. geniculata is thus used as a wild source of resistance for introgression into cultivated wheat.[1]: 276
