Abstract

Several systemic nematicides are now commonly used in commercial practice. Their efficiency in controlling plant parasitic nematodes have been investigated in many countries and on a wide range of crops. There are, however, relatively few observations on the way in which these nematicides, mainly carbamates, affect the biological processes of the nematodes. Some aspects of the effect of Aldicarb on the life cycle of Meloidogyne incognita (Kofoid et White) Chitw. and on the pathological activity of the nematode in the roots of treated potato plants were investigated in the experiment reported here.
