Abstract

The species was identified using morphometry and with the help of Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) common 18S primer as Meloidogyne enterolobii further confirmed by sequencing the 18s rRNA gene. The sequence had 99% similarity with M. enterolobii sequence previously available in NCBI database which was submitted and provided with Genebank accession number (KX611608).
