Description: The life cycle of RKN starts with eggs laid by the adult female in a gelatinous matrix (egg mass) close to or on the surface of plant roots. The eggs hatch into second stage juveniles (J2), which constitute the infective stage. These juveniles migrate actively through the soil and penetrate the roots of plants through the root tip or through natural openings. The nematode develops into an adult female, causing further gall formation as it matures and reproduces.
