Abstract


Sedentary endoparasitic nematodes reprogram gene expression in cells of plant host to induce the formation of specialized feeding sites; reprogramming results in a dramatic metabolic, physiological and cell structure modifications; this results from the secretion of effector molecules synthesized in their esophageal glands and introduced into the host cells through the stylet. The plant reacts and express defense mechanisms as the increase of enzymatic activity of key enzyme in the phenylpropanoid pathway, involved in the synthesis of secondary metabolites with antimicrobial properties and the lignin monomers. Lignin has a structural and defense roles in plants. Reliant on the plant-nematode interaction established, compatible or incompatible, will be the changes induced in its synthesis, and they will be or not favorable for the differentiation of the specialized feeding site. The aim of this review is to present information about the biosynthesis, composition and deposition of lignin, as well as the up today knowledge, about its role as a physical barrier against the establishment of phytonematodes in incompatible interactions and their possible participation in the formation of specialized feeding sites in compatible interactions.

Keywords
