The turfgrass industry has undergone a rapid development in Guangdong province, China, which the largest number of golf courses country. Recent surveys turfgrasses province revealed five plant-parasitic nematodes that are prevalent: Helicotylenchus dihystera, Mesocriconema xenoplax, Meloidogyne graminis, Hemicriconemoides rosae and Tylenchorhynchus leviterminalis. most prevalent species M. xeno...

A survey was conducted to determine the assemblage and abundance of plant-parasitic nematodes and their associations with soil factors in organically farmed fields in Minnesota. A total of 31 soil samples were collected from southeast (SE), 26 samples from southwest (SW), 28 from west-central (WC), and 23 from northwest (NW) Minnesota. The assemblage and abundance of plant-parasitic nematodes v...

A survey conducted from May 1995 through August 1998 revealed diverse nematode communities in Louisiana sugarcane fields. High populations of Mesocriconema, Paratrichodorus, Pratylenchus, and Tylenchorhynchus were widespread in nine sugarcane production parishes. Comparisons of plant cane and ratoon sugarcane crops indicated that nematode community levels increase significantly in successive ra...

during a survey of plant-parasitic nematodes in bamyan and mazar sharif provinces of afghanistan, several species of plant-parasitic nematodes belonging to infraorder tylenchomorpha were detected and identified. filenchus facultativus; filenchus discrepans; filenchus elegantulus; boleodorus volutus; neopsilenchus magnidens; coslenchus costatus; ditylenchus myceliophagus; tylenchorhynchus clarus...

Excellent growth responses were achieved by treating a sugarcane plant crop with the following nematicides: Di-Trapex, EDB, aldicarb, a combination treatment of EDB and aldicarb and a combination treatment of soil and foliar applied oxamyl. Fairly satisfactory responses were obtained when using oxamyl as a foliar spray only, and as a soil treatment only, and as a foliar treatment in combination...

Peach tree mortality was 75% five years after planting on a site associated with peach tree short life and receiving no nematicide treatment, no lime, and with cultivation for weed control. Mortality was reduced to 29% by preplanting plus postplanting applications of DBCP (1,2-dibromo-3-chloropropane) and with herbicidal weed control. Preplanting applications of nematicides alone did not effect...

Criconemoides xenoplax and Meloidogyne incognita were the nematode species most frequently associated with peach in North Carolina. Other nematodes often found in high numbers on that crop were Pratylenehus vulnus, Helicotylenchus spp., Trichodorus christiei, Xiphinema amerieanum and Tylenchorhynchus claytoni. P. vulnus and P. penetrans reproduced well on rootstocks of 21 peach cultivars tested...

Eighteen species in eight genera of plant-parasitic nematodes were identified from soil samples collected from soybean fields throughout Missouri. The genera represented were Helicotylenchus, Heterodera, Hoplolaimus, Meloidogyne, Paratylenchus, Pratylenchus, Tylenchorhynchus, and Xiphinema. Three fields, each with high densities of Helicotylenchus pseudorobustus, Pratylenchus hexincisus, or Par...

The pathogenicity and interactions of Meloidogyne naasi, Pratylenchus penetrans, and Tylenchorhynchus agri on 'Toronto C-15' creeping bentgrass, Agrostis palustris, was studied in a long-term greenhouse experiment. Based on dry weights of roots and clippings, M. naasi alone and in all combinations with P. penetrans and T. agri was highly pathogenic to creeping bentgrass. P. penetrans and T. agr...

abstract in order to identify plant parasitic nematodes of potato fields, 55 soil samples and a few tuber samples were collected from khorasan razavi province during 2005-2006 .soil samples were washed and nematodes were extracted by centrifugal flotation technique. the extracted nematodes were fixed and transferred to glycerin. baermann funnel method was used for extracting nematodes from tube...
