Distribution details in Nigeria

Situation
Current pest situation evaluated by EPPO on the basis of information dated 1994: Absent, unreliable record
Comments
The publication on which this record is based does not make it clear whether Ditylenchus dipsaci was used only as an experimental organism, or whether it is present in Nigeria. Since its presence seems implausible, the record should be considered doubtful.
