SHORT COMMUNICATIONS H. Y. MOHAMMAD & N. G. M. HAGUE: The effect of nematicide on root invasion by Meloidogyne graminicola and Heterodera sacchari. The effects of non-volatile nematicides on various stages of the nematode life cycle have been investigated in a number of species (McLeod & Khair, 1975; Hough & Thomason, 1975; Wright et al., 1980; Evans & Wright, 1982). Non- volatile nematicides are known to act by impairing nematode neuromuscular activity and sensory activity rather than by direct lethal action (Wright & Womack, 1981) and to exert their effect in the soil (Bromilow & Lord, 1979). In this paper the effect of the carbamate carbofuran and the oxime- carbamate oxamyl on two species of tropical nematodes, Meloidogyne graminicola and Heterodera sacchari are compared. The nematodes were cultured on barnyard grass, Echinochloa colonum, at 25°C ± 2° in a greenhouse. In a preliminary experiment the rate at which both species invaded E. colonum was determined with egg masses of M. graminicola and white females of H. sacchari. For M. graminicola, two egg masses containing a mean of 514 eggs per egg mass and for H. sacchari, two white females contain- ing a mean of 566 eggs per female
