Ten thousand eggs of M. enterolobii were inoculated on each sweetpotato genotype grown in a 3:1 sand to soil mixture. Sixty days after inoculation, the percentage of total roots with nematode-induced galls was determined, and nematode eggs were extracted from roots. Significant differences (P < 0.001) between sweetpotato genotypes were found in all six tests for gall rating, total eggs, and eggs per gram of root. Resistant sweetpotato genotypes were calculated as final eggs per root system divided by the initial inoculum, where Pf/Pi < 1 (reproduction factor; final egg count divided by initial inoculum of 10,000 eggs), and statistical mean separations were confirmed by Fisher’s least significant difference t test. Our results indicated that 19 out of 91 tested sweetpotato genotypes were resistant to M. enterolobii. Some of the susceptible genotypes included ‘Covington,’ ‘Beauregard,’ ‘NCDM04-001’, and ‘Hernandez.’ Some of the resistant sweetpotato genotypes included ‘Tanzania,’ ‘Murasaki-29,’ ‘Bwanjule,’ ‘Dimbuka-Bukulula,’ ‘Jewel,’ and ‘Centennial.’ Most of the 19 resistant sweetpotato genotypes supported almost no M. enterolobii reproduction, with <20 eggs/g root of M. enterolobii. A number of segregants from a ‘Tanzania’ × ‘Beauregard’ cross demonstrated strong resistance to M. enterolobii observed in the ‘Tanzania’ parent. In collaboration with North Carolina State University sweetpotato breeding program, several genotypes evaluated in these tests are being used to incorporate the observed resistance to M. enterolobii into commercial sweetpotato cultivars. }, number={4}, journal={PLANT DISEASE}, publisher={Scientific Societies}, author={Schwarz, Tanner R. and Li, Chunying and Yencho, G.
