Abstract

Abstract The influence of temperature on morphometrical variability of females and males of an isolate of Pratylenchus vulnus was studied. Nematodes were reared monoxenically on carrot disk cultures and incubated for 4 months at 16, 21, 25 and 28°C. The morphometrics of several characters were significantly affected depending on sex and temperature. It is concluded that temperature can significantly influence several morphometrical characters of P.vulnus.
