Growth and yield of grafted cucumbers in soil infested with root-knot nematodes

The aim of this study was to determine the effect of rootstocks on the growth and yield of cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.) plants in soils infested with root-knot nematodes (Meloidogyne spp.) Cucumber ’Adrian’ was grown with its own roots or was grafted onto three rootstocks of Lag...
