Susceptibility of Flowers and Bedding Plants to Root-Knot Nematodes

Abstract

ENY-061, a 7-page illustrated fact sheet by Romy Krueger and Robert McSorley, summarizes recently published work on varying plant susceptibilities to root-knot nematodes and provides an overview of flower cultivars and their susceptibility to different species and races of root-knot nematodes, particularly M. incognita, M. javanica, and M. arenaria, all of which are common in Florida. Includes references. Published by the UF Department of Entomology and Nematology, May 2010. ENY-061/IN850: Susceptibility of Flowers and Bedding Plants to Root-Knot Nematodes (ufl.edu)
