Additional information

1This paper was prepared by J. D. Wilson, Professor Emeritus, Ohio Agric. Research and Development Center, Wooster, Ohio. (Now deceased), as chairman of a committee, consisting of several plant pathologists, which was assigned the task of its preparation. These were Dr. Robert C. Cetas of the Long Island Vegetable Res. Farm, Cornell University, Riverhead, New York; Dr. M. B. Harrison, Agric. Experiment Station, Fort Collins, Colorado ; Dr. W. G. Hoyman, USDA, Prosser, Washington ; and Dr. R. L. Powelson, Dept. of Botany and Plant Pathology, Oregon State University, Corvallis, Oregon. In addition, Dr. H. M. Darling of the University of Wisconsin contributed some information on the control of an outbreak of the potato rot nematode which occurred in that state several years ago.
