The damage potential of the plant-parasitic nematodes Pratylenchus coffeae, Helicotylenchus multicinctus and Meloidogyne javanica, was assessed on plantain (Musa spp., AAB-group) cv. Apantu-pa in microplots in Ghana. Hot water treated suckers, planted in 3 l plastic bags containing sterilised soi...


Brentu, C.F.Speijer, P.R.Green, K.R.Hemeng, B.M.De Waele, D.Coyne, D.L.[Microplot evaluation of the yield reduction potential of Pratylenchus coffeae, Helicotylenchus multicinctus, and Meloidogyne javanica on plantain cv. Apantupa (Musa spp., AABgroup) in Ghana]Microplot evaluation of the yield reduction potential of Pratylenchus coffeae, Helicotylenchus multicinctus, and Meloidogyne javanica on plantain cv. Apantupa (Musa spp., AABgroup) in Ghana

Twenty five sites, representative of seven agro-ecological zones of enset (Ensete ventricosum) crops, were sampled between September 1998 and January 1999. At each site, five 1-2 year old enset plants were sampled to check for the presence of nematodes present in their roots. The predominant nema...

The optimum sample size for assessment of nematode densities and related damage in East African highland banana was estimated at Kikoni parish in Ntungamo district, Uganda. Kikoni parish is at an elevation ranging from 1360 to 1480 meters above sea level and the East African highland banana (Musa...


Speijer, P.R.Ssango, F.Kajumba, C.Gold, C.S.[Optimum sample size for Pratylenchus goodeyi (Cobb) Sher and Allen density and damage assessment in highland banana (Musa AAA) in Uganda]Optimum sample size for Pratylenchus goodeyi (Cobb) Sher and Allen density and damage assessment in highland banana (Musa AAA) in Uganda

East African Highland bananas (Musa spp., AAA) also known by their vernacular name ‘matooke', are a major staple food for the densely populated high elevation regions of Eastern and Central Africa. Banana production, however, is declining due to increased pest and disease pressure. Nematodes are ...

A field trial was established at Sendusu. 40 km north of Kampala. Uganda, to evaluate the response of yarn lines, developed by the International Institute of Tropical Agriculture (IITA), to nematode infestation. The field was naturally infested with nematodes and plants were established from tiss...

The predominant nematode species found on plantain in southern Nigeria was Helicotylenchus multicinctus which occurred at all 68 sites sampled. Hoplolaimus pararobustus, Pratylenchus coffeae and Radopholus similis were found at 64, 50 and 46% of the sites, respectively, while Meloidogyne spp. sec...
