Managing Nematode Infestations for Fruit Production in Florida

Learn about the spreading decline of citrus in Florida due to Radopholus similis nematodes. Explore early nematicide trials, root lesions in bananas, and weakened root systems. Understand the impact of Radopholus similis and Helicotylenchus multicinctus on bananas with necrosis and lesions. Discover methods for producing clean planting stock and controlling nematodes through soaking corm tissue and micropropagation in tissue culture. Dive into the damage caused by Pratylenchus and Hirschmanniella oryzae on roots and the Lance Nematode and Hoplolaimus species on various crops.
