Nematodes associated with potato in prince edward island and new brunswick.

J. Kimpinski

Abstract

Analysis of soil and root samples collected from potato fields across Prince Edward Island and the Woodstock-Grand Falls region of New Brunswick, Canada showed that Pratylenchus spp. were the dominant plant-parasitic nematodes. Pratylenchus penetrans occurred more often on Prince Edward Island, and P. crenatus predominated in New Brunswick. It was estimated that about 10% of the sites from Prince Edward Island had population levels of Pratylenchus spp. that may have caused economic losses.
