Cotton cultivars were evaluated for their performance in both Root-knot or Reniform planted on four Auburn University across Alabama.  Tests were planted in nematode infested field and non-infested fields on each farm to determine the yield loss associated with each nematode.  In each filed cultivars were planted with and without the addition of Velum Total to determine its effects in nematode infested field and non-infested fields.
