M. S. aMeloidogyne brasiliensis Charchar & Eisenback, 2002 is a junior synonym of M. ethiopica Whitehead, 1968.h[electronic resource] c2017 aThe aim of the present study was to carry out a detailed comparison of M. ethiopica and M. brasiliensis (type population) using several approaches, including morphological, morphometric, esterase phenotyping, SCAR marker, and phylogenetic analyses. Based on the similarities found between both species, we propose that M. brasiliensis be regarded as a junior synonym of M. ethiopica. aBrazil aChile aMeloidogynidae aRibosomal RNA aRoot-knot nematodes aMarcador molecular aAFLP (amplified fragment length polymorphism) aEsterase profile aMolecular aMorphology aNew synonym aRAPD technique aSCAR marker1 aCARES, J.
