Pterotylenchus cecidogenus n. gen., n. sp. from stem-galls of Desmodium ovalifolium Wall. in Colombia is described and illustrated. The new genus belongs to Anguinidae and is related to Orrina Brzeski, 1980 but is unique in having large vulval flaps. P. cecidogenus has females with body 0.59-0.8 ...

Pterotylenchus cecidogenus n. gen., n. sp., a new stem-gall nematode parasitizing Desmodium ovalifolium in Colombia
Variation for nine virulence and four electrophoretic characters was determined for 69 samples of Colletotrichum gloeosporioides collected in five natural stands of its host, Stylosanthes guianensis, in South America. Virulence phenotypes varied from four in the Quilichao population to 22 in the ...

Rust caused by Puccinia stylosanthis is reported for the first time on native populations of Stylosanthes aurea and S. guianensis var. pauciflora in the vicinity of Diamantina, Minas Gerais, Brazil. Although not common in May 1983, rust severely affected 50% of S. aurea and moderately affected mo...
The detection of the root-knot nematode, Meloidogyne javanica, as a pathogen of Desmodium spp. in Colombia, is the first reported case in South Aemerica. In the field, promising pasture legumes D. gyroides, D. heterocarpon and D. ovalifolium were severely damaged, while adjacent stands of Centros...

Reaction of Desmodium species and other tropical pasture legumes to the root-knot nematode Meloidogyne javanica
In recent years, increasing numbers of pathogens and pests have been reported from major centres of tropical pasture research. Damage is often severe and controls are needed. Diseases and pests may be controlled chemically, biologically, culturally and genetically. In pasture plants genetical res...

Resistance to diseases and pests of tropical pasture plants
A wide range of fungi, two bacteria and several viruses and nematodes have been recorded throughout the tropics on a group of Cassia species defined as taxonomically and geographically related to Cassia rotundifolia. Although limited information was found on the relative importance of these patho...
Fungal pathogens representing 36 genera and over 70 species, one bacterium, mycoplasma-like-organisms, at least six viruses, five races of root-knot nematodes and six other nematodes have been recorded on 18 Desmodium species of agronomic interest throughout tropical regions. Although limited inf...
Diseases of Aeschynomene spp. observed in forage evaluation trials in South America and Florida, U.S.A. are described and discussed. Newly discovered diseases include Polythrincium sp. leaf blotch, Calonectria sp. dieback, and Rhizoctonia solani Kuhn foliar blight. Diseases previously reported fr...
Diseases of Macroptilium atropurpureum cv. Siratro caused by fourteen genera of fungi, one bacterium, one virus and one genus of nematodes are described. Rhizoctonia foliar blight, common bean rust, false-rust and leaf-mottling virus are regarded as major constraints to the further use of Siratro...
