Abstract

Although there are records from India of the association of Rotylenchulus species with cowpea, Vigna unguiculata (L.) Walp, (Dasgupta and Seshadri, 1971; Dasgupta and Raski, 1968) there have been no detailed investigations to determine the extent of damage to the crop. The following investigation was undertaken to determine the effect of inoculum levels of Rotylenchulus reniform is Linford et Oliveira on the growth of cowpea and the rate of increase of nematode populations.
