The present study was focused on the parasitism of Meloidogyne species on the roots of native nursery plants from the Atlantic forest. Native plants were selected from a commercial nursery in Western Paraná, searching for the natural infection of Meloidogyne. Also, the seeds of native plants were cultivated in sterile soil and inoculated with M. incognita. In both the experiments, the number of galls and number...

The aim of this study was to compare the efficiency of three estimate methods for reference evapotranspiration in comparison with the FAO Penman-Monteith equation. Meteorological data used in this study were collected from the IAPAR meteorological station, located in Palotina, Paraná State, Brazil. In order to estimate the reference evapotranspiration, data available from 1994 to 2003 were used. The performance...
