“Meloidogyne javanica is a polyphagous root-knot nematode and basil is a documented host; root galling on sweet basil in tropical Guam is consistent.”
- horticulturist · plausible
“Root-knot nematode damage on Ocimum basilicum is well-known in tropical horticulture and consistent with affected root tissue and the source quote.”
