Population dynamics, distribution, and control of nematodes in highbush blueberries

Creator:

Schroeder, Jan-Marie

Abstract:

Fluctuations in population density of Pratylenchus sp., Trichodorus sp., and Xiphinema americanum s. 1. in three blueberry fields were determined monthly for one year. Pratylenchus densities were greatest in August and least in October. Three distinct periods of population growth occurred; during January, April, and between June and August. Trichodorus...

Facilitating plant-parasitic nematode management decisions for Washington Vitis vinifera growers : determining the spatial distribution of plant-parasitic nematodes and the host status of Vitis spp. to Meloidogyne hapla

Creator:

Howland, Amanda D.

Abstract:

A major constraint to the production of self-rooted wine grapes (Vitis vinifera) in eastern Washington is plant-parasitic nematodes. Plant-parasitic nematodes can impact grape productivity by limiting water and nutrient uptake, educing physiological changes, and extracting plant nutrients from roots, thereby reducing root biomass, plant vigor, and yield. The most commonly...
