Abstract
RESISTANCE among oat varieties to the stem eelworm, Ditylenchus dipsaci (Kühn) Filipjev, was first shown by Goodey1, who recorded a high degree of resistance in the varieties Grey Winter and Aberystwyth S81. Since this record, resistance has been recorded among commercially grown varieties, in Milford (S225)2, in S172, Early Grey Winter and Unique3. The following is a record of resistance in a new spring oat variety.
