Frequency Occurrence and Population Density of Plant-Parasitic Nematodes Associated with Solanaceous Plantations Grown in Dakahlia Governorate
Survey of plants parasitic nematodes gives information about parasitic nematodes distribution and delivers supplementary information to agronomists about phyto-nematodes importance. A survey of four solanaceous plants i.e., potato, tomato, pepper, and eggplant grown within three counties in Dakahlia governorate i.e., El- Sinbillawain, Mansoura and Agarevealed the presence of 10 nematode genera i.e., Dorylaimus,Helicotylenchus, Hoplolaimus, Meloidogyne, Pratylenchus, Rotylenchulus, Trichodorus, Tylenchorhynchus, Tylenchus and Xiphinema. The root knot nematode, Meloidogyne spp. appeared to be the key pest as its documented 108 times with total percent incidence of 72.0 %, whereas, the nematode genera, Rotylenchulus and Trichodorus exhibited modest spreading as they occurred at rates of 55 and 50 times with percent incidence of 36.6 and 33.3%, respectively. On the other hand, Helicotylenchus and Xiphinema had the lowermost values of spreading as they occurred at rate of 13 times with percent incidence of 8.6 % for each one. However, Meloidogyne spp. showed greater rate of occurrence in clayey soil texture at El- Sinbillawain county with value of occurrence 75.8%. Potato and eggplants encountered highest nematode genera numbers with equal number (9), followed by tomato (8), while pepper have the lowest number (7) respectively.
