The root-knot nematode, Meloidogyne incognita, was cultured monoxenically on oriental-melon (Cucumis melo L.) roots transformed by Agrobacterium rhizogenes at various temperatures. The developmental zero degree of the nematode was 10.9°C. The day-degrees for the onset of oviposition were 293, and 47...
