English. The rice root-knot nematode, Meloidogyne graminicola, significantly suppressed root growth of the graminaceous plants, rice, wheat, sorghum and a grass, Echinochloa colonum. The amount of damage varied with the plant species, the main roots of rice and E. colonum were inhibited by the nematode and laterals grew in clusters on or around the galls. The largest number of galls and nematodes occurred on sorghum roots

L'entita' del danno variava a seconda della specie; le radici principali del riso e di E. colonum venivano inibite dal nematode e le radici laterali crescevano in gruppi su o intorno alle galle. Il numero piu' ampio di galle e nematodi si riscontrava sulle radici di sorgo]
