managing nematode population densities on tomato transplants using crop rotation and a nematicide.millet, milo, soybean, crotalaria, and norman pigeon pea were used in conjunction with clean fallow and a nematicide (fensulfothion) for managing nematode populations in the production of tomato transplants (lycopersicon esculentum mill.). glean fallow was the most effective treatment in suppressing nematode numbers. after 2 years in tomato, root-knot nematodes increased in numbers to damaging levels, and fallow was no longer effective for complete control even in conjunction with fensulfothion. ...198019300664
effect of watering regimen on injury to corn and grain sorghum by pratylenchus species.the effect of simulated rainfall frequency on the pathogenicity of pratylenchus zeae and p. brachyurus was studied in four greenhouse experiments. corn and grain sorghum were watered at different intervals during predetermined cycles to create a gradient of water-stressed plants. each experiment included nematode and uninoculated treatments. growth reaction of plants to different frequencies of watering was significant but was not affected by the presence of nematodes. pratylenchus zeae numbers ...199319279822
influence of concomitant pratylenchus brachyurus and meloidogyne spp. on root penetration and population dynamics.populations of pratylenchus brachyurus on cotton were increased significantly in the presence of either meloidogyne incognita or m. arenaria.this occurred with either simultaneous inoculation or prior invasion by m. incognita. p. brachyurus penetrated cotton roots previously invaded by, or simultaneously inoculated with, m. incognita, as well as, or better than, in the absence of m. incognita. prior invasion by m. incognita, however, suppressed p. brachyurus populations on tomato, while it had n ...197319319334
