In this review, we highlight recent advances in this field, with a focus on the best-studied root-knot nematodes. Histological studies have revealed the cellular changes inside root-knot nematode-induced feeding sites, both in the compatible interaction with Oryza sativa and the incompatible interaction with the related species Oryza glaberrima. After comparing the published data from transcriptome analyses, mutant studies, and exogenous hormone applications, we provide a comprehensive model showing the role and interaction of plant hormone pathways in defense of this monocot crop against root nematodes, where jasmonate seems to play a key role. Finally, recent evidence indicates that effectors secreted from rice-infecting nematodes can suppress plant defense. specialized histology resistance plant hormones effectors ZONE TROPICALE 076 52 135-153 2014 0066-4286 https://www.documentation.ird.fr/hor/fdi:010063932 10.1146/annurev-phyto-102313-050111 0066-4286 [F B010063932] https://www.documentation.ird.fr/hor/fdi:010063932 https://www.documentation.ird.fr/intranet/publi/2015/03/010063932.pdf Accès réservé (Intranet de l'IRD) IRD - Base Horizon / Pleins textes 2015-04-07 2017-08-23 fdi:010063932 fre
