چکیده

The reniform nematode Rotylenchulus reniformis was reduced in the upper 10 cm of soil with application of UHF electromagnetic energy. Bioassay of treated soil indicated no delayed effect on the population from the treatment. The population was significantly reduced by hot water treatments at 40 C for 10 min, and at 45 C for 5 and 10 min, 50 C and above killed all nematodes. Data were inconclusive as to whether the effect of UHF electromagnetic energy was thermal or nonthermal.

Suppression of Rotylenchulus reniformis on Cotton by the Nematophagous Fungus ARF.

The reniform nematode, Rotylenchulus reniformis Linford &Oliveira, has become a serious threat to cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) production in the United States during the past decade. The objective of this study is to isolate fungi from eggs of R. reniformis and select potential biological control agents for R. reniformis on cotton. Soil samples were collected from cotton fields located in Jef...

Correlations of Rotylenchulus reniformis Population Densities with 1,3-Dichloropropene Dosage Rate and Pineapple Yields.

The relationships between Rotylenchulus reniformis population densities and pineapple growth and yield were studied in a small-plot field experiment. Increasing rates of handgun-injected 1,3-dichloropropene (1,3-D) preplant fumigant from 0 to 337 liters/ha resulted in greater nematode control, faster plant growth, and larger pineapple fruits. Rotylenchulus reniformis population densities at 2, ...

Effect of Controlled Cold Storage on Recovery of Rotylenchulus reniformis from Naturally Infested Soil.

Rotylenchulus reniformis is rapidly becoming the most economically important pest associated with cotton in the southeastern United States. Incentive programs have been implemented to support sampling of production fields to determine the presence and abundance of R. reniformis. These sampling programs have dramatically increased the number of soils samples submitted to nematology laboratories ...

Host Status of Commercial Maize Hybrids to Rotylenchulus reniformis.

The host status of 50 commercial maize hybrids for a Mississippi population of Rotylenchulus reniformis was determined in greenhouse experiments. Reproduction was measured by determining RF values ([final egg number + juveniles and vermiform adults in soil] / initial egg number) and number of eggs per gram of fresh root. All hybrids maintained R. reniformis below the initial population level, i...

Molecular and Morphological Characterization and Biological Control Capabilities of a Pasteuria ssp. Parasitizing Rotylenchulus reniformis, the Reniform Nematode.

Rotylenchulus reniformis is one of 10 described species of reniform nematodes and is considered the most economically significant pest within the genus, parasitizing a variety of important agricultural crops. Rotylenchulus reniformis collected from cotton fields in the Southeastern US were observed to have the nematode parasitic bacterium Pasteuria attached to their cuticles. Challenge with a P...
