Abstract

Morphometric and morphological variations were recorded on maize population of Tylenchorhynchus brevilineatus Williams, 1960. Data were statistically analysed for coefficient of variation (C.V.) of each character and a correlation matrix table was prepared. Intra-specific variations in some characters viz., lip region, lateral field, longitudinal striations, oesophageal bulb and cardia, hemizonid and excretory pore position, post-anal blind sac, spicule and gubernaculum and tail shape are discussed.
