Pratylenchus coffeae is among the plant parasitic nematodes contributing to yield losses of banana. To determine the status of P. coffeae, a survey was conducted in banana-growing regions of Tanzania and samples collected. The results indicated that in 2015 there was an increase in total counts of P. coffeae extracted from roots compared to that reported in 1999 in Unguja West, North and South. Moreover, we noted its presence for the first time in mainland Tanzania. Generally, the densities of P. coffeae were high on banana roots collected at 500–1000 m above sea level. This information on the status of P. coffeae is important in planning management of nematodes in Tanzania.

坦桑尼亚香蕉产区咖啡豆草的现状

Pratylenchus coffeae 是导致香蕉产量损失的植物寄生线虫之一。为了确定咖啡假单胞菌的状况，在坦桑尼亚的香蕉种植区进行了一项调查并收集了样本。结果表明，与 1999 年报告的 Unguja West、North 和 South 相比，2015 年从根中提取的 P.coffeae 总数有所增加。此外，我们首次注意到它在坦桑尼亚大陆的存在。一般来说，在海拔 500-1000 m 处采集的香蕉根上，咖啡因密度较高。这种关于咖啡假单胞菌状态的信息对于坦桑尼亚线虫的规划管理很重要。
