ABSTRACT

Stem and bulb nematode, Ditylenchus dipsaci (Kühn, 1857) Filipjev, 1936 (Tylenchida: Anguinidae) is widely distributed in areas where garlic is grown commercially in Turkey. One of the suitable methods for control of D. dipsaci under field conditions is rotation with non-host plant species. Thus, it is necessary to determine the host status of the plant species that can be used in rotation with the garlic plant. For this purpose, the host status of eight different plant species for four D. dipsaci populations obtained from important garlic growing areas was investigated in 2017 and 2018. The experiments were conducted with four replicates of treatments with nematode and without nematodes in a control environment room. Each plant was inoculated with 200 nematodes of the respective population. Six weeks after inoculation, the final nematode population in the plants and reproduction factors were determined. For all nematode populations, daffodil was an excellent host with reproduction factor (Rf) of 5.0-6.2. Onion and garlic plants were good hosts with Rf of 3.2-3.8 and 2.1-2.5, respectively. Lucerne, chickpea, leeks, lettuce and wheat were determined to be non-host species with Rf 0.6-0.7, 0.5-0.8, 0, 0 and 0.3-0.5, respectively. It was concluded that these non-host plant species can be used as rotational crops in the garlic production areas infested with D. dipsaci.
