Burrowing Nematode Radopholus similis (Cobb, 1893) Thorne, 1949 (Nematoda: Secernentea: Tylenchida: Pratylenchidae: Pratylenchinae)

open access: yesEDIS, 2012
The burrowing nematode is the most economically important nematode parasite of banana in the world. Infection causes toppling disease of banana, yellows disease of pepper and spreading decline of citrus.

Control of the banana burrowing nematode using sisal extract [PDF]

open access: yesAgronomy for Sustainable Development, 2014
The nematode Radopholus similis is a major pest in banana plantations worldwide. This nematode is actually controlled using synthetic, toxic nematicides. Alternative control methods are therefore needed. For instance the liquid by-product of fiber extraction from sisal (Agave sisalana) may be used as a nematicide.

Meiobenthos of the discovery Bay Lagoon, Jamaica, with an emphasis on nematodes. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
PhDSediment granulometry, microphytobenthos and meiobenthos were investigated at five habitats (white and grey sands, backreef border, shallow and deep thalassinid ghost shrimp mounds) within the western lagoon at Discovery Bay, Jamaica. Habitats were

Yield Increases in Burrowing Nematode-infested Anthurium with Fluopyram and Trifloxystrobin Applications

open access: yesHortTechnology, 2020
Burrowing nematode (Radopholus similis) causes severe stunting and yield reduction in anthurium (Anthurium andraeanum) cut flower production. Two field trials were conducted at commercial grower farms to test the efficacy of fluopyram or fluopyram ...

Endophytic Non-Pathogenic Fusarium oxysporum-Derived Dual Benefit for Nematode Management and Improved Banana (Musa spp.) Productivity

open access: yesAgriculture, 2022
The banana weevil (Cosmopolites sordidus) and the burrowing nematode Radopholus similis represent two of the most important pests of bananas. Previously, colonization of banana plants by the non-pathogenic Fusarium oxysporum (isolate V5w2) and the ...

IN VITRO SCREENING FOR ANTHURIUM TOLERANCE TO BURROWING NEMATODE, RADOPHOLUS SIMILIS [PDF]

open access: yesHortScience, 1996
Burrowing nematode, Radopholus similis , reduces flower-yield-infected anthurium fields. Genetic resistance is one alternative to chemical control of the disease in anthurium. Seventeen commercial anthurium varieties, established in vitro on anthurium nutrient medium, were inoculated with ...

Long‐term cattle grazing shifts the ecological state of forest soils

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2022
Cattle grazing profoundly affects abiotic and biotic characteristics of ecosystems. While most research has been performed on grasslands, the effect of large managed ungulates on forest ecosystems has largely been neglected.
