A review of the interaction between potassium nutrition and plant disease control
Abstract Potassium (K) is an essential macronutrient involved in many physiological and biochemical functions that affect a plant's susceptibility to disease. These processes include stomatal regulation, enzyme activation, and solute transport, each of which is often discussed through the lens of either plant nutrition or plant disease control. However,

Convergent evolution of saccate body shapes in nematodes through distinct developmental mechanisms
Background The vast majority of nematode species have vermiform (worm-shaped) body plans throughout post-embryonic development. However, atypical body shapes have evolved multiple times.

BIOMANAGEMENT OF ROOT-KNOT AND RENIFORM NEMATODES ON OKRA
Seed dressing with culture filtrate of Paecilomyces lilacinus resulted in a significant control of root-knot nematodes, Meloidogyne incognita and reniform nematode, Rotylenchulus reniformis singly or concomitantly, with a corresponding increase in plant growth, length and weight of plants and number of pods, chlorophyll content of leaves, water ...

A 2‐year, multi‐county survey of plant‐parasitic nematodes in North Carolina flue‐cured tobacco
Abstract North Carolina is the leading producer of flue‐cured tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum L.) in the United States. Production in the state is threatened by numerous plant‐parasitic nematodes, including Meloidogyne spp. (root‐knot), Globodera tabacum (tobacco cyst), Pratylenchus spp.

Abstract Yield improvement in cotton could be accelerated through selection for functional yield drivers such as interception of cumulative photosynthetically active radiation (∑IPAR), radiation use efficiency (RUE), and harvest index (HI). However, information on the extent to which these traits vary in cotton in the southeastern United States is ...

Abstract Sweetpotato (Ipomoea batatas L.) is an important staple crop cultivated in over 100 countries, and the storage roots and vines provide food for humans and livestock. Sweetpotato consumption and demand for its value‐added products have increased significantly in the last two decades and have led to new cultivar development, expansion in acreage,

Abstract Three fluorinated, one carbamate nematicide, as well as two biological control agents were tested in greenhouse trials to determine their efficacy against Meloidogyne incognita on tomato plants in three different soils. Each soil was treated with one of the following chemical nematicides at the labelled rate: fluensulfone, fluopyram ...

Genetic Resistance to Reniform Nematode (Rotylenchulus reniformis) in Upland Cotton (Gossypium hirsutum) [PDF]
Reniform nematode, Rotylenchulus reniformis Linford & Oliveira, is one of the most destructive nematode pests of cotton (Gossypium spp.), and upland cotton (G. hirsutum L.), the most common cultivated type, is lacking in resistance.

First Report of the Reniform Nematode Rotylenchulus reniformis on Cotton in Virginia
In Virginia during September 2002, the reniform nematode, Rotylenchulus reniformis Linford and Oliveira (1), was found for the first time following a grower's concern about poor growth and yield of cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) cv. Fiber Max 989BR. The infested field was planted with cotton each year for the last eight growing seasons.
