Other claims from this paper (9)
- Method / resource Seinhorst population models fitted resistant potato genotype data well except one genotype that lacked resistance.
- Recommendation The study suggests that the number of nematode densities used in resistance tests can be reduced.
- Method / resource The population dynamical model fitted the tested potato genotypes well.
- Association Maximum multiplication rate decreased as potato test pot size increased.
- Association Maximum population density decreased as potato test pot size increased.
- Observation Estimated rsa values were relatively stable across potato test pot sizes.
- Observation Estimated rsM values were a bit higher in 5 kg potato test pots.
- Method / resource Seinhorst yield models fitted fresh potato tuber weight well.
- Recommendation The authors conclude that potato resistance tests for M. chitwoodi can use smaller pots and fewer nematode densities.
