Abstract
Evaluates resistance of native Trifolium species (including T. reflexum) to root-knot nematodes. Trifolium reflexum showed more variability in response to root-knot nematodes between years and among accessions, which were collected from Kentucky, Mississippi, and two locations in Texas. This, along with observations of phenotypic variability, may suggest a broader genetic variability for root-knot nematode response in T. reflexum.Suggested Citation
