Comprehensive morphological and molecular analyses revealed that published ITS sequences of the economically important plant-parasitic nematode Pratylenchus goodeyi are actually sequences from distantly free-living bacterivorous 'cephalobids'. We demonstrated that this incorrect labelling resulted in a cascade of erroneous interpretations, as shown...
