Host suitability of grain sorghum and sudangrass for Pratylenchus brachyurus

Arq. Inst. Biol; 86 (), 2019
Nowadays, the root-lesion nematode Pratylenchus brachyurus (Godfrey) is a major pest of soybean in Brazil, mainly in areas using double cropping with maize or cotton, which are suitable hosts for P. brachyurus. A great effort has been made to find cash crops for P. brachyurus management. Grain sorghum [S...

Effect of Thymol on Soybean Seeds Germination: Physiological and Biochemical Analysis

Abstract Higher levels of reactive species of oxygen are harmful to plant tissues. This study evaluated the action of different doses of thymol on soybean seed germination, biometric analysis and enzymatic parameters; both involved in germination process. High doses of thymol affected the plantlet growth...
