Abstract

In India, the major nematode problems in different cotton- and jute-growing areas which affect the production and quality include root-knot (Meloidogyne incognita and M. javanica) and reniform (Rotylenchulus reniformis) nematodes. In the northern cotton-growing areas, the root-knot nematode (M. incognita) is a major problem, while the reniform nematode R. reniformis is more common in the southern and central India. In jute, the root-knot nematode (M. incognita) is a major problem. Their geographical distribution, economic importance, symptoms, biology, interaction with other soil-borne pathogens, survival and spread, and management methods are discussed.
