Chinese radish now has chitwoodi resistance

The Chinese radish green manure crop has long had a reputation as a host plant for problem nematodes in potatoes. Recently, however, this problem was relegated to the past as a result of the arrival of the Doublet variety, according to plant selection company Limagrain. The variety is resistant to both Meloïdogyne chitwoodi and beet eelworm (BCA-1).
