[Studies on influence of intensity factors on the population dynamic of migratory root nematodes with special consideration of the genus Pratylenchus Filipjev. III. Influence of three years irrigation (author's transl)].

Results of a field experiment on the effect of three years irrigation on the population dynamic of migratory nematodes of the cereals are described. In case of constant high moisture content the Pratylenchus spec. were inhibited. A cumulation of this effect during three years was not observed. The influence was only low on the species of the genus Tylenchorhychus, Paratylenchus, on the species of the families Aphelenchoididae/Aphelenchidae, Dorylaimidae, and on the saprophytic nematodes of the order Rhabditida.
