Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: The southern root-knot nematode (Meloidogyne incognita; RKN) is one of the most important economic pests of Upland cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.). Host plant resistance, the ability of a plant to suppress nematode reproduction, is the most economical, practical, and environmentally sound method to provide protection against this subterranean pest.
