RT Journal Article SR Electronic T1 Comparison of Some Nematicides on Vitis vinifera cv. Sultana in Victoria, Australia JF American Journal of Enology and Viticulture JO Am J Enol Vitic. FD American Society for Enology and Viticulture SP 224 OP 227 DO 10.5344/ajev.1986.37.3.224 VO 37 IS 3 A1 A. R. Harris YR 1986 UL http://www.ajevonline.org/content/37/3/224.abstract AB Five nematicides were tested in established Sultana vineyards on sands to sandy loams for control of parasitic nematodes and effects on growth and yield of the vines. Different formulations and application times and rates were used in four experiments between 1979 and 1983. Only 1,2-dibromo-3-chloropropane (DBCP) consistently reduced soil populations of Meloidogyne javanica (Treub) Chitwood and Tylenchulus semipenetrans Cobb, but aldicarb was effective against M. javanica over two years. Phytotoxicity symptoms were obvious on oxamyltreated vines in 1982, and yields and berry acidity were reduced. Fenamiphos reduced nematode numbers in two experiments and ethoprop in one, but no non-volatile nematicide increased vine growth or yield.
