Root-knot and root-lesion nematodes: Soil fumigation reduces infestations but can not be used growing orchards or vineyards
by M. W. Allen
| Full text HTML  | PDF  
The characteristic galls or knots on the roots of trees and vines which are caused by root-knot nematodes make this pest easy to recognize in the field.

Ant control in citrus groves: Argentine ant controlled for about six months by thorough spring application of chlordane spray
by Paul D. Gerhardt
| Full text HTML  | PDF  
Ants—particularly Argentine ants—often interfere with the normal activities of beneficial insects attacking certain scale and mealybug pests. Therefore the chemical control of ants in citrus groves has sometimes been of value in encouraging the spread and multiplication of these beneficial insects.
