Tropical Fruit Crops

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Nematode Diseases of Crops and their Management

Abstract

The most important nematode pests that are potentially damaging to tropical fruit crops like banana, citrus, papaya, and pineapple include root-knot (Meloidogyne spp.), reniform (Rotylenchulus reniformis), lesion (Pratylenchus spp.), and citrus (Tylenchulus semipenetrans) nematodes. Distribution, crop losses, biology, survival and spread, and management methods for tropical fruit crops such as physical, cultural, chemical, biological, host resistance, and integrated nematode management are discussed in this chapter.
