Nematode were determined in 189 soil and root samples collected from 18 olive nurseries in Golestan province (northern Iran), between 2004 and 2008. which contain eight species belonging to eight grnera The important nematodes detected, in order of decreasing frequency of infestation (percentage of samples), were Aphelenchus avenae, Meloidogyne javanica, Irantylenchus sp., Pratylenchus thornei,...

On the examination of soil around the roots of Mustard in Kashmir Valley, two species of Nematodes were met, namely Aphelenchus radicicolus Steiner,1931 and Psilenchus haki Handoo, 1977. The species were identified under Stereoscopic microscope with the little intraspecific variations from the original in terms of the dimensions. The effect of organic amendments including poultry manure, pigeon...

The female reproductive system of Aphelenchus avenae, studied in orcein-stained material, showed a peculiar structural pattern not yet reported in other nematodes. Chromosome morphology and behavior during gametogenesis could be studied in more detail than in other tylenchid or aphelenchid species investigated to date. In a bisexual population from Australia, gametogenesis was by normal meiosis...

In this study, we aimed to determine the nematode diversity in soils from olive orchards İzmir, Manisa, Çanakkale, and Balıkesir provinces. For purpose, a survey was carried out 2021-2022; each orchard, soil samples were collected 0-60 cm depth, nematodes extracted by modified Baermann Funnel method. Thirty-seven genera of (Achromodora, Acrobeles, Acrobeloides, Alaimus, Aphelenchus, Aphelenchoi...
