- Abstract
A survey was made in Coimbatore district of Tamil Nadu on Pasteuria penetrans spore attachment on different phytonematodes and laboratory condition during kharif season of 2010. The study revealed that the nematodes Meloidogyne incognita, Heterodera cajani, Radopholus similis, Helicotylenchus multicinctus, Pratylenchus coffeae and Hoplolaimus spp.were encumbered with P. penetrans spores ranging from 26 to 35. The spore attachment was higher on M. incognita compared to H. cajani, R. similis, H. multicinctus, P. coffeae and Hoplolaimus spp. Hence it is inferred that the rate of parasitism by P. penetrans differs significantly among phytonematodes.
