Meloidogyne incognita- and Rotylenchulus reniformis-resistant new cotton cultivars have recently become available, giving growers a new option in nematode management. The objectives of this study were: (i) to determine the yield potential of the new cultivars PHY 360 W3FE (M. incognita-resistant) and PHY 332 W3FE (R. reniformis-resistant) in nematode-infested fields and (ii) to evaluate the effects of combining the nematicides Reklemel (fluazaindolizine), Vydate C-LV (oxamyl), and the seed treatment BIOST Nematicide 100 (heat killed Burkholderia rinojenses and its non-living spent fermentation media) with resistant cotton cultivars on nematode population levels and lint yield. Field experiments in 2020 and 2021 indicated M. incognita population levels were 73% lower on PHY 360 W3FE (R) and 80% lower for R. reniformis on the PHY 332 W3FE (R) at 40 days after planting. Nematode eggs per gram of root were further reduced an average of 86% after the addition of Reklemel and Vydate C-LV when averaging both cultivars over the two years. Tests with BIOST Nematicide 100 + Reklemel + Vydate C-LV (0.56 + 2.5 L/ha) in both M. incognita and R. reniformis fields produced higher lint yields. Overall, planting PHY 360 W3FE (R) and PHY 332 W3FE (R) improved yields an average of 364 kg/ha while limiting nematode population increases. The addition of the nematicides further increased yields 152 kg/ha of the nematode-resistant cultivars.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
