Figures & Tables

Figure 1:

Peanut root-knot nematode egg abundances from peanut roots at midseason (6 weeks after planting) in 2022 and 2023 as affected by cultivars and nematicide treatment. “B-II Fluop.” indicates Bailey II cultivar with infurrow fluopyram application. Other treatment names indicate cultivars without nematicide application. Within each subfigure, means with different letters are significantly different (Fisher’s protected LSD, α = 0.05).

Figure 2:

Peanut root-knot nematode soil abundances before planting, at midseason (6 weeks after planting), and at harvest in 2022 and 2023 as affected by cultivars and nematicide treatment. “B-II Fluop.” indicates Bailey II cultivar with in-furrow fluopyram application. Other treatment names indicate cultivars without nematicide application. Within each subfigure, means with different letters are significantly different (Fisher’s protected LSD, α = 0.05).

Ring nematode soil abundances before planting, at midseason (6 weeks after planting), and at harvest in 2022 and 2023 as affected by cultivars and nematicide treatment. “B-II Fluop.” indicates Bailey II cultivar with in-furrow fluopyram application.

Figure 4:

Peanut yield and marginal return on investment in 2022 and 2023 as affected by cultivars and nematicide treatment. “B-II Fluop.” indicates Bailey II cultivar with in-furrow fluopyram application. Other treatment names indicate cultivars without nematicide application. Marginal return (in US Dollars) is relative to mean income (crop value minus product cost only) for Bailey II. Within each subfigure, means with different letters differ significantly (Fisher’s protected LSD, α = 0.05).
