Open-access Further investigations on host plants for the coffee root-knot nematode, Meloidogyne exigua

Tests were performed in order to evaluate the reaction of 54 crops and 34 weed species to M. exigua. None revealed to be susceptible to this parasite. Several of the species were attacked by other root-knot nematodes, to which they are well known hosts.
