Abstract | ||||
The survey conducted to assess the incidence of root-knot nematode on pomegranate in five localities (El-Badary, Manfalout, Sedfa, Sahel-Selim and El-Fath) in Assiut governorate. Results showed that 490 out of 500 samples were infested with root-knot nematode showing 98% infestation. Maximum infestation was found in El-Badary, Manfalout and El-Fath (100%), while the minimum was observed in Sahel-Selim (94%) followed by Sedfa (96%). | ||||
