High yielding cotton varieties will be selected to determine the real yield reduction due to the reniform nematodes. Cotton varieties will be treated with a nematicide or no nematicide will be added. The presence of the nematode reduced cotton plant growth by 60%. The nemticide reduced reniform populations densities by 40%. Yields will be collected soon.
