Extract

Venkatarayan (1932) gave a short account of the occurrence of galls on Andropogon pertusus Willd., a common pasture grass of South India. He described the appearance of the galls, their distribution on the plant, the symptoms to which they give rise and established the fact that the nematode causing them is a species of Tylenchus to which, however, he did not give a specific name. He pointed out that there were no earlier records of the occurrence in India of galls on grass or cereals due to nematodes apart from those caused by Anguillulina tritici in the ears of wheat.
