Abstract

Seventeen plants, belonging to seven genera, were inoculated with single egg mass populations of Meloidogyne incognita in order to determine the extent of variation in the female characters. Females developing on roots of almost all the plants exhibited significant variation in morphometric and allometric characters except on Crotolaria sp., Tagetes sp., Amaranthus caudatus cvs., SL. No. 25 and French bean cv. Brown Beauty where the development of females was inhibited.
