Abstract

Bright yellow patches (hot spots) in pea fields signal the presence of these microscopic worms that parasitize roots of pea, Pisum sativum; faba bean, Vicia faba; and vetches Vicia spp. Even green areas of infected fields may harbor low levels of nematodes, cysts, and infected roots. Color photos show damage and disease cycle. Detection methods and prevention by site selection and crop rotation are discussed. 8 pages.
