Resistance of Cotton to the Root-Knot Nematode, Meloidogyne incognita

Cotton plants resistant to Meloidogyne incognita had roots characterized by fewer and smaller galls, and females that produced fewer egg masses containing fewer eggs than did susceptible plants. Many galls on resistant roots contained no nematodes at the time of examination. Penetration of the resis...

Description
Résumé:Cotton plants resistant to Meloidogyne incognita had roots characterized by fewer and smaller galls, and females that produced fewer egg masses containing fewer eggs than did susceptible plants. Many galls on resistant roots contained no nematodes at the time of examination. Penetration of the resistant cultivar was equal to that of the susceptible cultivar and independent of the number of nematodes in the inoculum. Fewer nematodes penetrated resistant or susceptible plants with eight leaves than those with fewer leaves. Reciprocal grafts of resistant and susceptible plants failed to confer resistance or susceptibility to the rootstock
