Serological method to differentiate Meloidogyne chitwoodi and M. fallax from other Meloidogyne species
A serological method to differentiate the nematodes Meloidogyne chitwoodi and M. fallax (both EPPO A2 quarantine pests) from other Meloidogyne species has been developed in France. A further step in this research, will be to develop an antiserum which will allow to differentiate between M. chitwoodi and M. fallax.
