Yams (Dioscorea spp.) are food crops of growing significance in sub Saharan Africa. Unfortunately, nematodes are major pests to their production. A study was undertaken in major yam growing areas of Uganda to investigate the association of plant parasitic nematodes with damage symptoms. Nemato...

Les ignames (Dioscorea spp.) sont une culture alimentaire d’importance croissante en Afrique sub–saharienne.Malheureusement, les nématodes sont des parasites majeurs qui gênent sa production. Une étude était menéedans les principales régions productrices de l’igname en Ouganda en vue de pouvoir ...

In Uganda, nematodes have the potential to cause substantial yield losses, yet it is not known whether farmers have knowledge of the damage these pests cause. A participatory rural appraisal was therefore conducted to assess farmers' awareness of nematodes, and to determine the preferred traits i...

Plant parasitic nematode infection of crops can be highly detrimental to agricultural production. Since the discovery that plant roots release chemicals that attract the infective stage of plant parasitic nematodes some 80 years ago, significant progress in identifying the signaling molecules has...

Naturally occurring fungal antagonists of root-knot nematodes (Meloidogyne spp., RKNs) were collected from 88 root and corresponding rhizosphere soil samples from 50 intensively cultivated fields used for peri-urban vegetable production in Benin, West Africa. Five species of Trichoderma viz.: T. ...

Root-knot nematode (RKN), Meloidogyne spp. is an economically important pest of the traditional leafy vegetable, Solanum macrocarpon L., in Benin. In the search for IPM options, the effect of 5, 20, 35 and 50 g of dried skin peels of cassava storage roots (CP) and orange fruits (OP) each on incid...

The pathogenicity of five plant-parasitic nematode species, Radopholus similis, Pratylenchus coffeae, Helicotylenchus multicinctus, Hoplolaimus pararobustus and Meloidogyne spp., commonly recorded from banana and plantain in West and Central Africa, was assessed on plantain (Musa spp., AAB genome...

We studied the effect of treating banana and plantain (Musa spp.) suckers using boiling water for the generation of healthy planting material. Small, medium and large-sized suckers of two East African highland bananas (cvs. Mbwazirume, Kibuzi, AAA-EA) and one of plantain (cv. Agbagba, AAB) were d...
