Mungbean cultivar responses (tolerance & resistance) to P. thornei in field trials

This dataset reports changes in population densities of the root-lesion nematode, Pratylenchus thornei following a set-up phrase in which differential populations of the root-lesion nematode, P. thornei, were established in a factorial design by growing two wheat cultivars: one moderately resistant (cv. QT8343) and the other susceptible (cv. Kennedy). In the following season, for the mungbean experiments, nine cultivars of mungbean, one blackgram cv. Regur, and one soybean cv. Bunya were planted; a fallow treatment was also included. Soil samples were taken from every plot before planting and after harvest in Year 2 to determine P. thornei populations at 0–30 cm soil depth by the DNA-test offered by PREDICTA B; nematodes were also assessed "manually" to 90 cm soil depth using the Whitehead tray method and enumeration under a microscope. For the 2014-2015 experiment only, wheat cv. Lincoln was planted on the trial site in 2015 and yield was determined.

本数据集记录了根腐线虫（root-lesion nematode）中的索氏根腐线虫（Pratylenchus thornei）种群密度的变化情况。该变化发生于试验设置阶段之后，此阶段中研究人员采用析因设计，通过种植两个小麦品种构建了不同梯度的索氏根腐线虫种群：一个为中抗品种（品种名QT8343，cv. QT8343），另一个为感病品种（品种名Kennedy，cv. Kennedy）。
后续试验季开展绿豆相关试验：共种植9个绿豆品种、1个黑绿豆品种Regur（cv. Regur）、1个大豆品种Bunya（cv. Bunya），同时设置休耕处理组。在第二年的播种前与收获后，从每个样地采集土样：采用PREDICTA B提供的DNA检测法，测定0~30 cm土层的索氏根腐线虫种群数量；同时采用怀特黑德盘法（Whitehead tray method）结合显微镜计数，以手动方式检测0~90 cm土层的线虫种群。
仅针对2014-2015年试验，研究人员于2015年在试验田种植小麦品种Lincoln（cv. Lincoln）并测定其籽粒产量。
