Abstract
Two species of gall-forming root-knot nematodes—Meloidogyne incognita var. acrita and M. javanica—seem to be the most widespread of several kinds that parasitize California peaches. Consequently, first efforts toward selection of nematode-resistant rootstocks have been directed against these nematodes.
