Meloidogyne enterolobii Yang and Eisenback (Pacara earpod tree root-knot nematode, guava root-knot nematode)

This rather recently described species is now considered a cosmopolitan, economically important nematode with a broad host range (Castillo and Castagnone-Sereno, 2020). Meloidogyne enterolobii induced many galls on infested industrial hemp plants in the field and on the industrial cv. Longma No. 5 in greenhouse tests (Ren et al., 2020); these authors considered M. enterolobii to be a major potential threat to hemp production. The average Rf in the greenhouse experiments was 18.2.
