The Growth of Meloidogyne in Prunus Persica

Abstract

THE GROWTH OF MELOIDOGYNE IN PRUNUS PERSICA BY J. F. BURDETT, A. F. BIRD 1) AND J. M. FISHER Plant Pathology Department, Waite Agricultural Research Institute, Adelaide, South Australia Parasitism of seedlings of the peach varieties Okinawa, Fort Valley, Stribling's 37, Yunnan and Elberta by Meloidogyne javanica and M. incognita var. acrita was studied in a controlled environ- ment. M. javanica reproduced on Elberta, Yunnan, and Stribling's 37 whilst M. incognita var. acrita reproduced only on Elberta. Neither reproduced on Okinawa or Fort Valley. Growth curves were obtained for M. juvanica in the five varieties of peach; they were typically sigmoid in Yunnan and Elberta.
