Abstract

Fifty four plant species of economic importance in the perimediterranean countries were assessed as host for Meloidogyne artiellia. Most of the Leguminosae and Graminaceae were hosts for the nematode and only cowpea, lupin, sainfoin and maize were non hosts. All Cruciferae tested were good hosts. Members of the Umbelliferae, Chenopodiaceae, Cucurbitaceae, Malvaceae and Solanaceae were non or poor hosts. Compositae, Liliaceae, Linaceae and Rosaceae were non hosts.
