The polyphagous parthenogenetic root-knot nematodes of the genus Meloidogyne are considered to be the most significant nematode pest in sub-tropical and tropical agriculture. Despite the crucial need for correct diagnosis, identification of these pathogens remains problematic. The traditionally u...

A new root-lesion nematode, particularly pathogenic to Musa spp. and causing important plantain losses in Ghana, is described and named Pratylenchus speijeri n. sp. The cryptic status of this species within the P. coffeae species complex has been assessed and confirmed in this study. An extensive...

Although root-knot nematodes (Meloidogyne spp.) are a widely distributed pest of yam (Dioscorea spp.), the level of damage the yams incur, either alone or in association with other plant-parasitic nematodes is largely undetermined. The current study assessed the damage Meloidogyne spp. caused in ...

Cowpea (Vigna unguiculata (L.) Walp.) is an important food crop in Mozambique. The crop is cultivated almost exclusively by smallholder farmers in warm marginal environments of the country. Rootknot nematodes (Meloidogyne spp.) are among the major constraints limiting cowpea yield in the country....

Two glasshouse experiments were conducted to assess the influence of three inoculation methods on Scutellonema bradys multiplication on yam (Dioscorea spp.) and on growth and production of the crop. Three separate cultivars of yam were used in the study: two Dioscorea rotundata cultivars (Ala and...

Seed yam is costly, and can carry pests and diseases. To reduce costs and to manage seed health, in the 1970s, the Yam Minisett Technique (YMT) was developed, which involved cutting yams into small pieces to be used as seed. Few farmers adopted the technique, in part because of the high labor req...

Scutellonema bradys is the major nematode species that affect yam (Dioscorea spp.) production and storage in Benin. A nematode survey was conducted during the storage periods of 2002and 2003 in the yam-growing areas to study the distribution, population diversity and incidence of S. bradys on tub...

The effects of nematode infection and mulching on plantain cv. Agbagba (Musa spp., AAB-group, false horn) yield and plantation longevity were examined in a field experiment at the High Rainfall Station of the International Institute of Tropical Agriculture (IITA) at Onne in southeastern Nigeria. ...
