Abstract

Plant parasitic nematodes such as lesion nematodes (Pratylenchus vulnus and P. penetrans), root-knot nematodes (Meloidogyne spp.), ring nematode (Mesocriconema xenoplax), and bud and leaf nematodes (Aphelenchoides spp.) represent a worldwide concern on temperate fruit crops. For food and nutritional security, management of nematodes is important. Integrated nematode management strategies have been developed using the components like seed certification, hot water treatment of planting stock, soil application of organic amendments (including oil cakes), use of nematicides both in nursery and field, use of biological control agents, and resistant rootstocks/cultivars.
