To study the attraction and penetration of Meloidogyne javanica (Treub) Chitwood and Heterodera glycines (Ichinoe) in soybean (Glycine max L.), a technique using 2-cm long root segments was developed. In infected soybean root segments penetration of second stage juveniles (J2) of M. javanica occured through the root cap following migration between the vascular bundles of the central cylinder. Juveniles of H. glycines penetrated about 15mm from the root cap. The cut region of the soybean root attracted three times more J2 of M. javanica when compared to the root cap, but was not as attractive to H. glycines J2. Sealing both root cap and cut region reduced (83%) the J2 penetration of M. javanica and H. glycines. When only one of these penetration sites was sealed the open site compensated attractiveness. These results show that the attractive substances are released by these two penetration sites. The M. javanica J2 penetration was higher in root segments when compared to whole soybean plants. However, H. glycines J2 penetrated less in root segments and in roots of seedlings without leaves when compared to roots of whole soybean plants and roots of plants without the aerial part. In short, attraction and infection sites of H. glycines and M. javanica J2s in soybean cultivar "Embrapa 20" are different and this technique may be useful in studies of attraction and penetration of other endoparasitic nematodes.
