- Abstract
This article presents information on new or uncommon plant diseases and pest in Great Britain as of June 1956. Coleus plants in pots at a nursery in Bath, Somerset, were showing some distortion and a marked patchwork-quilt necrosis in the leaves caused by eelworm Aphelenchoides ritzema-bosi, in April 1954. Root-knot eelworm were found in some plants of Chrysanthemum maximum from a nursery at Hennock, Devon, in September 1955. A number of greenhouses at Holt, Somerset, were found to be heavily infested with leatherjackets, Tipula oleracea on February 8, 1955. Root-knot eelworm galls were found on a plant of Lobelia fulgens from a nursery at Bath, Somerset, in 1955. The eelworms were identified by J. B. Goodey as Meloidogyne hapla and the occurrence is a new host record for this species.
