a DAI indicates days after inoculation. Negative values indicate days before inoculation.

Figure 1:

Effects of different crop treatments on final soil sting nematode abundances in greenhouse trials. Values are means (N = 6) with error bars indicating standard errors. Within a trial, means that share a letter are not significantly different based on Tukey’s HSD (P < 0.05).

Figure 2:

Effects of different crop treatments on sting nematode reproduction factor in greenhouse trials. Reproduction factor (RF) is final sting nematodes population per pot/inoculated initial population; Dashed line indicates RF = 1. Values are means (N = 6) with error bars indicating standard errors. Within a trial, means that share a letter are not significantly different based on Tukey’s HSD (P < 0.05).

Figure 3:

Ratio sting nematode soil abundances to root biomass in greenhouse Trial I and Trial II. Values are means (N = 6) with error bars indicating standard errors. Within a trial, means that share a letter are not significantly different based on Tukey’s HSD (P < 0.05).

Figure 4:

Final fresh-root weight of crops at termination of greenhouse trials. Values are means (N = 6) with error bars indicating standard errors. Within a trial, means that share a letter are not significantly different based on Tukey’s HSD (P < 0.05).

Figure 5:

Final shoot weight of crops at termination for greenhouse Trial I and Trial II. Values are means (N = 6) with error bars indicating standard errors. Within a trial, means that share a letter are not significantly different based on Tukey’s HSD (P < 0.05).

a DAI indicates days after inoculation.

b Values are means. Letters within each DAI indicate significant differences according to Tukey’s HSD (P < 0.05).

‘***’ indicates ANOVA with P ≤ 0.01.
