Management of the Citrus Nematode, Tylenchulus semipenetrans.

Journal of nematology, 2011
Of the many nematode species that parasitize citrus, Tylenchulus semipenetrans is the most important on a worldwide basis. Management of the citrus nematode remains problematic as no one tactic gives adequate control of the nematode. An overall management strategy must include such components as site selection, use of non-infected nursery stock, use of

Mineral composition of beetroot treated with potential elicitors and inoculated with Meloidogyne javanica

Chemical and Biological Technologies in Agriculture, 2020
Background The root-knot nematode Meloidogyne javanica can infect beetroots, causing extensive damage to this food crop. As chemical and genetic control tactics have shown limited efficacy, new strategies are needed to improve the integrated management ...

Evaluation of Preplant Seed Protectants for the Management of Root-Knot Nematode of Okra in Ghana

International Journal of Agronomy
Root-knot nematode (Meloidogyne incognita) poses a significant threat to okra production, resulting in substantial yield losses. The objectives of this study were to assess the impact of biological seed protectants on the growth and establishment of okra

Citrus and avocado nematodes: Spread by nursery stock, by contaminated implements, and by water from irrigation canals that may drain infested land

California Agriculture, 1959
Approximately 90% of the citrus trees in California are infested with the citrus nematode–Tylenchulus semipenetrans–which can reduce the yield of bearing trees and the growth of replants.

The Effects of DBCP on Citrus Root Nematode and Citrus Growth and Yield in Iraq.

Journal of nematology, 2011
In lraq, treatment of producing citrus trees with a 75% emulsifiable formulation of 1,2-dibromo-3-chloropropane (DBCP), applied in irrigation water at rates of 66-88 kg (a.i.)/hectare, gave excellent control of the citrus nematode (Tylenchulus semipenetrans) greatly improved tree vigor, and increased the fruit yield for at least 3 years after treatment.

Entomopathogenic Nematodes for Control of Root Weevils of Citrus

The Florida Entomologist, 1992
The entomopathogenic nematodes, Steinernema carpocapsae (All strain), Heterorhabditis bacteriophora (HP-88 strain), H. bacteriophora (Florida strain), applied to the soil of a citrus grove near Lake Jem, Florida in March 1989, significantly reduced adult emergence of the root weevil, Diaprepes abbreviatus (L.).

Infectivity of two biotypes of the citrus nematode on citrus and on some other hosts.

Journal of nematology, 2011
The infectivity and development of two biotypes of citrus nematode (Tylenchulus semipenetrans) were compared on highly resistant Poncirus trifoliata selection 'Pomeroy,' moderately susceptible 'Troyer' citrange, and highly susceptible sweet orange selection 'Homosassa' small seedlings in a glasshouse. Biotype-1 was more infective on the above hosts and

Influence of metalaxyl on three nematodes of citrus.

Journal of nematology, 2011
Metalaxyl significantly reduced population of Pratylenchus coffeae, Radopholus similis, and Tylenchulus semipenetrans in roots of Citrus limon (rough lemon) under greenhouse conditions. Postinoculation treatment of rough lemon seedlings was not as effective i n reducing nematode populations as was treatment before inoculation.
