Evaluation of the rice genotypes against Meloidogyne graminicola under greenhouse conditions (the value of the number of galls, total endoparasites, egg masses and average eggs/plant are the mean of ten replicates; figure in parentheses indicates √X + 0.5 transformed value; values are significant at P < 0.05 and P < 0.01)
