Association and impact of nematodes on weeds and leafy vegetables : with reference to Meloidogyne
(North-West University (South Africa), 2016)Although some African countries have attained some successes in addressing food insecurity during the past 20 years, acceptable levels of nutrition in humans still pose a challenge. African leafy vegetables (ALVs) are ... -
Cephalenchus driekieae n. sp. (Nematoda: Tylenchidae) from South Africa, a new member of the genus with a long pharyngeal overlap
(Exeley, 2020)Cephalenchus driekieae n. sp. is described and illustrated based on its morphological, morphometric, and molecular characteristics. This new species is mainly characterized by its short stylet 11.5 to 13.0 µm, and 13.5 to ... -
The distribution of aquatic molluscs and associated trematodes within the Limpopo Lowveld ecoregion, South Africa
(North-West University (South Africa), 2023)The continued rise in global temperature under the current climate change predictions is placing immense pressure on natural freshwater ecosystems, with thousands of freshwater species known to be either threatened or ... -
Identification and reproduction potential of South African Meloidogyne species
(2016)Root-knot nematodes (Meloidogyne spp.) parasitize a wide range of agri- and horticultural crops worldwide, causing yield and quality losses. Meloidogyne arenaria, M. hapla, M. incognita and M. javanica generally are the ... -
Molecular characterisation of Meloidogyne enterolobii and other Meloidogyne spp. from South Africa
(Springer, 2019)Identification of Meloidogyne spp. is challenging when using only the classical techniques since some species share similar characteristics. In this study, 37 Meloidogyne populations were obtained from four provinces in ... -
Techniques and procedures (Nematology in South Africa: a view from the 21st century)
(Springer, 2017)A wide range of generic, specialised and innovative techniques, and procedures used by local nematologists for their research on nematodes (plant-parasitic and non-parasitic), are presented. Practical approaches to identify ...
