Abstract [eng] A total of 11,406 soil samples from 2,742 ha were collected in 10 administrative regions of Lithuania during the year 2006. A total of 672 cysts were selected and species were morphologically identified as Globodera rostochiensis. Of these cysts, 117 from 5 administrative regions of Lithuania were identified using polymerase chain reaction (PCR) analysis. Two pairs of species-specific primers were used to distinguish G. rostochiensis from G. pallida. This is the first application of a PCR method for identification of Globodera species in Lithuania.
