Abstract

Feeder roofs of grapes may be almost completely lacking in heavy nematode infestations.

Also in this issue:

Plant nematology in California: State's: Crop losses led to first department for research in plant nematology to be established by experiment stations

Nematodes in plant quarantine: Detection of plant parasitic nematode infestations difficult because of complexity of possible causes of visible symptoms

Nematode structure and life: Wide range of life habits requires combination of characters for identification of parasites classified among nematodes

Field and vegetable crops: Wide ranges of crops and climatic conditions in California necessitate development of several diverse control programs

Citrus and avocado nematodes: Spread by nursery stock, by contaminated implements, and by water from irrigation canals that may drain infested land

Deciduous fruit and nut trees: Root-knot nematode on peach and root-lesion nematode on walnut cause serious problems for California orchardists

Nematodes on ornamentals: Root-knot, root-lesion, and more specialized or exotic forms may cause acute injuries in nursery, greenhouse, and garden

Biochemical relationships: Nematodes, plants, and linking soil components of complex problem of widespread, important pest of state's agriculture

Natural enemies of nematodes: Studies of complex soil environment aimed at favoring fungi and other organisms that limit plant nematode populations

Chemical control of nematodes: Effective nematocides relatively few in number but available in several forms for field use on perennial and annual crops

Factors influencing the results of fumigation of the California red scale

Inheritance of resistance to hydrocyanic acid fumigation in the California red scale
