Comparison of the damage potential and yield loss of the rice root-knot nematode, Meloidogyne graminicola, on lowland and upland rice varieties from Myanmar KU Leuven
In Asia, the rice root-knot nematode, Meloidogyne graminicola, is an important pathogen of Asian rice (Oryza sativa) in most rice producing countries including Myanmar. In the first part of our study, the damage potential of M. graminicola on commonly cultivated newly released high-yielding lowland rice varieties and upland rice varieties (traditional, improved and aerobic), which are being grown in different regions in the summer-irrigated ...
