root-knot nematodes are one of the limiting factors in seedling production and new olive gardens establishment in iran. in view of find resistance cultivars to root-knot nematodes, importance of careful identification of species and races are clarified. in order to investigate root-knot nematodes on olive, soil and root samples of gardens and nursery in gorgan area were collected. in this study...

Soybean breeding lines and reported sources of nematode resistance were evaluated in repeated greenhouse tests for resistance to North Carolina populations of the soybean cyst nematode Heterodera glycines, reniform nematode Rotylenchulus reniformis, and the root-knot nematode species Meloidogyne incognita, M. arenaria, and M. arenaria. Lines from the soybean breeding program in Missouri that ha...

Recent research has demonstrated an important interaction between Thielaviopsis basicola, the cause of black root rot, and the root-knot nematode, Meloidogyne incognita (Walker et al., 1998; 1999; 2000). This interaction causes dramatic reductions in early-season growth in producers’ fields and yield reductions of 21 to 44% have been documented in microplot and field research. The interaction i...

The southern root-knot nematode, Meloidogyne incognita, is the most damaging pathogen of cotton in the USA. Host-plant resistance to root-knot nematodes is an effective means of reducing crop losses and reducing nematode population levels in a field. Resistance to plantparasitic nematodes refers to the suppressive effect of the plant on the nematode’s ability to reproduce; tolerance describes t...

The incorporation of a rye (Secale cereale L.) cover crop into the soil prior to planting cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) has been shown to restrict damage caused by root-knot nematodes (Meloidogyne incognita (Kofoid and White) Chitwood). A greenhouse study was conducted to determine the duration of the effectiveness of rye decomposition in controlling root-knot nematode damage in relation to th...

true myrtle, myrtus communis l belonging to myrtaceae family is an important medicinal herb in traditional medicine and pharmaceutical industries in iran. moreover because of  being evergreen, having dense foliage and ease of pruning, it is planted at steep slopes, grasslands, boulevards and sidelines of parks as an ornamental shrub or hedge of green. it is distributed in southern europe, asia,...

The biological control efficacy of a greenhouse soil bacterial mixture of Lactobacillus farraginis, Bacillus cereus, and Bacillus thuringiensis strains with antinematode activity was evaluated against the root-knot nematode Meloidogyne incognita. Two control groups planted in soil drenched with sterile distilled water or treated with the broadspectrum carbamate pesticide carbofuran were used fo...

root-knot nemaode which causes extensive damage to legumes and cerealshas beenreported in many countries. the nematods has been observed on legumes, roots in manyregions of the world, causing swollen root and yield reduction. in order to evaluate the effect ofirrigation interval on reproductive traits of root-knot nematode, and the damage inflicteduponnavy bean, a study was conducted in 2011 in...
