Other claims from this paper (17)
- Intervention effect All soil treatments gave greater tomato growth than the herbicide control.
- Observation Tomato growth was similar among the soil treatments.
- Intervention effect All treatments reduced M. incognita J2 in tomato roots compared with the herbicide control.
- Observation The number of M. incognita isolated from tomato roots did not differ among the tomato rootstocks tested.
- Observation The tomato rootstock Multifort produced the largest and healthiest roots.
- Observation Galling on tomato was highest in herbicide control plots and nongrafted plants.
- Observation In melon, M. incognita J2 in soil did not differ among melon rootstocks.
- Observation Numbers of M. incognita isolated from melon rootstocks increased in Tetsukabuto compared with C. metuliferus.
- Observation Tetsukabuto melon rootstock had larger root systems than nongrafted Athena.
- Intervention effect All fumigants protected all melon rootstocks against galling by M. incognita compared with the herbicide control.
- Intervention effect Galling on C. metuliferus rootstock was less in all fumigant treatments than on nongrafted Athena and Tetsukabuto.
- Intervention effect Watermelon yield was lower on both grafted rootstocks than on the nongrafted control.
- Observation In watermelon, M. incognita in soil and roots did not differ among soil treatments or watermelon rootstocks.
- Intervention effect All soil treatments increased average fruit weight of watermelon compared with the herbicide control.
- Intervention effect Soil treatments provided effective weed control compared with the herbicide control in watermelon.
- Observation Soil treatments kept purple nutsedge density at or below 1/m row in watermelon.
- Recommendation Grafting commercial scions onto M. incognita-resistant rootstocks has potential for nematode management, alone or combined with soil treatments.
