Extract

Roots of oats grown on sandy loam in Norfolk were observed by E. B. Brown of the National Agricultural Advisory Service, Cambridge, to have small galls associated with proliferation of the lateral roots. Close examination showed the presence of female Meloidogyne in the galls. The nematodes differed in some respects from the generally-known species and specimens were sent to the author for study.
