Description
A field experiment was used to determine the effects of the root lesion nematode (Pratylenchus neglectus) and phospate and zinc nutrition on the production of annual medic pastures. Elimination of nematodes (nematicide increased shoot and seed production significantly and zinc and nematicide in combination significantly reduced numbers of nematodes present in roots.
