Factorial analysis demonstrated the relationships between variables and gave a elear er picture of the eventa occuning during a control programme. A marked negative correlation was established for both nematodes between nematode numbers and nitrogen fuation by symbiotic bacteria. The nematode affects the plan ta both directly and indirectly reducing symbiotic nitrogen fization.

Methods used to assess the resistance of red clover vars to Ditylencbus dipsaci in the laboratory and in experimental field conditions in tbe European USSR are described In laboratory tests the resistance index (RJ) of the 8 vars tested ranged from 17.09 to 35.83% with the highest in Tetraploid VUC. In field tests when resistance and tolerance were assessed in 2 consecutive years, Tetraploid VIK showed an RI of 48.47% at the finał assessment and good tolerance. The field RI’s of the olher vars were Iower than those recorded in the laboratory.

Invasion of M. jaranica alone into roots of broad bcan and cowpea caused much damage to plant tissues and ca used the formation of thick-walled, multinucleate giant cells with granular cytoplasm. Hyperplastic tissues were formed around bypertrophied cells. Roots of broad bcan infected by F. oxysporum or roots of cowpea infected by F. solani alone showed that tbe fungal uivasion was confmed to the 95
epidermis with poor fungal growth m the cortcz. Yascular bundlcs were free from myce li um. Roots infected with both organisms indicated that fungal penetration could be through the epidermis far from the nematode as well as at the nematode point of entry. The fungus grew well in sloughing epidermal cells and xylem vessels. Giant cells were also infected by several fungal hyphae and became devoid of cytoplasm.

Plant roots were mechanically injured or subjected to nematode parasitism to test the model of host damage by 2 nematode species: y = ra' + (|-nOc'ZiP||ZjPu for y < 1.0 and y = 1.0 for y > 1.0, where m' = m, + (mrm,) (l-yi)/ (G-y.) + (l-y,)J and c = (zi *Ti+ z* ’ri)/2. Damage functions for greenhouse-grown radish plants (cv. Cheny Belle) mechanically injured with smali or large Steel needles were used to predict growth of plants injured by both needles. Growth predictions accounted for 94%, 37% and 82% of mean treatment variaiion in plant height, stem weighi. and root weight. respectively. Cowpea (cv. Califomia Blackeye No.5) damage functions, based on preplant popuJation levels of Meloidogyne incognita and M. jaranica. were used to predict seed yield of plants concomitantly infected with various leve!s of cach species. Single species damage functions and popuiation growth curves indicated significant host resistance to M. incognita and significantly Iower virulence of that species compared to M. javanica. Model predictions accounted for 88% of mean sced yield vaiation in 2 species Ireatments. In a separate experiment, mean top weights of 30-day-otd cowpea plants, uniformly moculated with 20 000 M. jaraniem eggs, inereased with inereasmg Ievels of concomitantly inocutated M. incognita eggs. It may be that the competitive interactions between M. incognita and M. jaraniem mitigated host damage by the moie virulent species.
