Resistance Based Integrated Pest Management Strategy for Globodera rostochiensis and Globodera pallida in Potato Cropping Systems
(2019-10)
Potato cyst nematodes (PCN), Globodera rostochiensis and G. pallida are important potato pests responsible for high yield losses globally. The ability of PCN to persist in the soil for a long time makes their management challenging and therefore these nematodes are under strict quarantine regulations in many countries. Nevertheless, both PCN species have recently been reported in potato cropping systems in Kenya. Resistant potato cultivars reduce nematode densities in the field below damage threshold levels and thus ...
