چکیده
A procedure for treating crop seeds with aqueous solutions of the systemic nematicide oxamyl is described. Seedlings from treated seeds were more resistant to attack by parasitic nematodes. Leachate from treated seeds reduced the number of free-living nematodes in the surrounding soil.

The root-knot nematode (Meloidogyne spp.) is one of the principal nematode pests of field and vegetable crops in the southern United States (6). Meloidogyne spp. are generally not uniformly distributed in naturally infested field sites, and sites frequently contain more than one species, thus complicating the evaluation of breeding lines for nematode resistance. To facilitate evaluation of nema...
متن کاملThe Role of Cropping Systems in Nematode Population Management
Crop rotation is one of the oldest and most important approaches to the con trol of nematodes that feed on the roots of annual crop plants. The value of rotations often was recognized long before their effects upon the dynamics of nematode populations and communities were considered. As specific nema tode problems were identified and their economic importance demonstrated, attention usually w...

Habitat disturbance affects numerous ecosystem components and processes, but its effect on continuous soybean system is less available. Soybean was seeded following six preceding crops, including grain soybean (Glycine max L. Merill.), wheat (Triticum aestivum L.), sugar beet (Beta vulgaris L.), tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum L.), corn (Zea mays L.) and hemp (Cannabis Satia L.), on a Mollisol ...
