The distribution, population density and incidence of plant parasitic nematodes and associated damage to yam (Dioscorea spp.) tubers obtained from market stalls in the West African countries of Benin, Burkina Faso, Côte d’Ivoire, Ghana, Mali, Nigeria and Togo was determined during the tuber stora...

Distribution and prevalence of nematodes (Scutellonema bradys and Meloidogyne spp.) on marketed yam (Dioscorea spp.) in West Africa
Nine Nigerian populations of Scutellonema bradys, obtained from infected yam (Dioscorea spp.), were assessed following inoculation onto susceptible yam (Dioscorea rotundata) cv. TDr131 in pot and field experiments in Nigeria between 2002 and 2004. In addition, geographically separated populations...

Comparison of pathogenicity of geographically separate populations of Scutelllonema bradys on yam (Dioscorea spp.) in West Africa
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...

Pathogenicity and damage potential of five species of plantparasitic nematodes on plantain (Musa spp., AAB genome) cv. Agbagba
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...
