Nematode Diseases of Crops and their Management

Abstract

Nematode diseases are one of the main biotic constraints in reducing the quantity and quality of pulse crops. Root-knot nematodes (Meloidogyne spp.), cyst nematodes (Heterodera spp.), reniform (Rotylenchulus reniformis), and lesion nematodes (Pratylenchus spp.) are the major nematode pests that attack pulse crops (chickpea, pigeon pea, green gram, and black gram). Nematodes have also been found to interact with pathogenic soil-borne fungi and increase the severity of the disease pathogens. Seed treatment can be the option to minimize the chemical use for nematode management. For effective management of nematodes under field conditions, growing of marigold, Tagetes spp., as an intercrop was found effective. Several methods have been used to manage the pulse nematodes by integrating different farming practices like using cultural and physical control methods, encouraging naturally occurring biological control agents, and host plant resistance.
