Abstract
A glasshouse experiment was undertaken to evaluate the reaction of the olive cultivar FS 17 and the olive rootstock DA 12 I to Xiphinema index. Growth of DA 12 I was significantly suppressed whereas no effect was observed on FS 17. The highest initial population densities of X. index also enhanced root phenols content.
