Abstract: | The effect of space on the multiplication of the reniform nematode,Rotylenchulus reniformis on cowpea was determined under green house conditions. Both plant growth as estimated by root and shoot weights as well as its lengths and multiplication of the reniform nematode were greatly affected by the amount of space (soil). The population ofR. reniformis increased with an increase in the amount of space (soil) around seedling; highest being observed at 1,250 g of soil. The growth pattern of cowpea was attaining highest growth in 1,000 g of soil. Population ofR. reniformis increased with an increase in soil up to 1,250 g with 5 seedlings. The growth of cowpea was highest in 500 g of soil with 2 seedlings. |
