Abstract:
A survey of the citrus orchards of the Punjab has revealed that most of the orchards carry heavy infestation of the citrus nematodes (Tylenchulus semipenetrans). Among citrus varieties the local Gadadehi (Citrus aurantium) showed maximum infection of 98 4 per cent. In addition, nematodes belonging to the genera of Pratylenchus, Aphelenchus, Tylenchorhynchus and Xiphinema were also recovered from the citrus rhizosphere.
