Dataset on the diversity of plant-parasitic nematodes in cultivated olive trees in southern Spain.

ABSTRACT: Datasets presented here were employed in the main work "Spatial structure and soil properties shape local community structure of plant-parasitic nematodes in cultivated olive trees in southern Spain" Archidona-Yuste et al., 2020. In this research, we aimed to unravel the diversity of plant-parasitic nematodes (PPN) associated with cultivated olive (Olea europaea subsp. europaea var. europaea) in southern Spain, Andalusia. The olive growing area of Andalusia is of high agriculture and socio-economic importance with an extensive distribution of this crop. To this end, we conducted a systematic survey comprising 376 commercial olive orchards covering the diversity of cropping systems applied. Data showed 128 species of PPN belonging to 38 genera and to 13 families. In addition, an extensive d
