Bacillus-based bionematicides: development, modes of action and commercialisation
(Taylor & Francis, 2018)Agricultural crops are severely damaged by root-knot nematodes causing extensive financial losses globally. Historically, agrochemicals have been the preferred method to combat these pests; however, threats to humans and ... -
Density-dependent growth response and sensitivity of Meloidogyne incognita to Maerua angolensis and Tabernaemontana elegans: Card model
(Taylor & Francis, 2019)Curve-fitting Allelochemical Response Dosage (CARD) computer-based model has proven to be a valuable tool in the definition of dosage response relationships between organisms and various plant extracts. Its use in the ... -
Mapping quantitative trait loci of Meloidogyne graminicola resistance and tolerance in a recombinant inbred line population of Oryza glaberrima × O. sativa
(Brill, 2019)Host response of BC2F3 recombinant inbred line (RIL) population derived from a cross between African rice (CG14) and Asian rice (IR64) genotypes was evaluated in the field and quantitative trait loci (QTLs) that confer ... -
Morphological and morphometrical identification of Meloidogyne populations from various crop production areas in South Africa with emphasis on M. enterolobii
(Magnolia Press, 2019)Accurate identification of Meloidogyne spp. is crucial and the first step to apply suitable management strategies to combat these nematode pests. Perineal-pattern morphology of female specimens is one of the most common ... -
Reproductive potential of South African thermophilic Meloidogyne populations, with special reference to Meloidogyne enterolobii
(Brill, 2019)Variability in the reproductive potential of Meloidogyne spp. is crucial to design suitable nematode management strategies. The reproductive potential of nine South African single-species Meloidogyne populations, M. ... -
Reproductive, pathogenic and genotypic characterisation of five Meloidogyne graminicola populations from the Philippines on susceptible and resistant rice varieties
(Brill, 2018)Five populations of Meloidogyne graminicola isolated from different rice-growing areas in the Philippines were characterised. The populations showed little phenotypic variability of second-stage juveniles and female perineal ...
