Abstract

The root-knot nematodes (Meloidogyne spp.) are important parasites of peanut. The association of there nematodes with peanut was first reported in 1889 when Neal (52) observed masses of knotty roots in Florida. Following Chitwood's (14) revision of the genus Meloidogyne Goeldi, root-knot nematodes attacking peanut have been assigned the names M.arenaria (Neal) Chitwood and M. hapla Chitwood.
