Use the diagrams of the above root samples to assist in determining
the degree of root galling and deceased root mass when sampling for
root knot nematode using the weighted rating (WNR) method. A weighted
rating of 0 is given for healthy roots with no galls. Rating 1 is for
root systems that are 1-25% galled; 3 is for 26-50% galled; 5 is for
51-75% galled; and 7 is for 76-100% galled.
