A comparison of the effects of the nematodes Radopholus similis and Pratylenchus goodeyi on growth, root health and yield of an East African highland banana (Musa AAAgroup)
The effects of Radopholus similis and Pratylenchus goodeyi on growth, root health and yield of the East African highland cooking banana cultivar Mbwazirume (Musa AAA-group) were compared at Mbarara, Uganda, at 1430 m above sea level. In 3-year-old mats infected only with P. goodeyi, functional root...
