A study was conducted in growth chambers to examine main factor and interaction effects of Tylenchorhynchus nudus and Magnaporthe poae on creeping bentgrass and annual bluegrass at 24, 28, and 30 C. A 2 x 2 factorial arrangement of treatments was employed with presence and absence of T. nudus and M. poae as factors with each temperature run separately for 14 or 18 days. Tylenchorhynchus nudus d...

The present study examined interspecies, intersexual, and age-related changes in size of the vomeronasal neuroepithelium (VNNE) of two species of greater bushbabies (genus Otolemur, Infraorder Lorisiformes, Suborder Strepsirrhini). Tissue blocks containing the vomeronasal organs of nine O. crassicaudatus (8 adults, 1 neonate) and ten O. garnettii (9 adults, 1 neonate) were studied by means of s...

during a survey, five known species of plant-parasitic nematodes of the families tylenchidae and dolichodoridae (tylenchomorpha: tylenchoidea) were collected and identified from several locations in golestan, guilan, kurdistan, and fars provinces. paratrophurus kenanae, tylenchus elegans and t. ritae, as new records for iranian nematode fauna, with the two previously reported species filenchus ...

Three stunt nematode species, Tylenchorhynchus leviterminalis, T. dubius and T. claytoni were characterized with segments of small subunit 18S and large subunit 28S rDNA sequence and placed in molecular phylogenetic context with other polyphyletic taxa of Telotylenchidae. Based upon comparably sized phylogenetic breadth of outgroups and ingroups, the 28S rDNA contained three times the number of...

Eight commercial pea fields on Prince Edward Island were sampled in June and July over a 2-year period (1986-87) to determine soil population densities and the incidence of nematodes and fungi associated with root rot of peas. Root lesion nematodes (Pratylenchus spp.) were the dominant endoparasitic nematodes recovered from roots and soil. Low populations of the northern root-knot nematode (Mel...
