Abstract/Contents: | "Observations at three grassland sites in England and Wales on nine perennial ryegrass genotypes infected or not by the endophytic fungus Acremonium lolii, showed that populations of plant-parasitic nematodes were not reduced on endophyte-infected plants during the two years of the experiment. There was evidence at two sites, where numbers of plant nematodes increased during the trial period, that there were significantly more nematodes on endophyte-infected plants. At the third site, where nematode populations did not increase, there was no difference between endophyte treatments. Nematode population changes on one genotype, known to grow better when endophyte-infected, were similar to the average for all genotypes. In a glasshouse pot experiment, invasion and development of root-knot nematode, Meloidogyne naasi, was the same on endophyte-infected and endophyte-free plants of the responsive genotype. In samples from field plots and in the pot experiment, roots of endophyte-infected plants were larger and probably accounted for the increased nematode populations." |
