Summary

A method is described for the isolation of high molecular weight DNA from females of potato cyst nematodes. Restriction enzyme analyses of repetitive DNA revealed 30 bands specific for Globodera rostochiensis and 8 bands specific for G. pallida. None of the repetitive DNA bands resolved was common to both species. Hybridization patterns, obtained with a DrosophilaβJ-tubulin probe, revealed 4 common bands, 3 bands specific for G. rostochiensis and 12 bands specific for G. pallida.
