Synopsis Nematode management tactics can be grouped into three types: prevention, containment and chemical control. Prevention tactics include practicing crop rotation, using nematode-free seeds and transplants, planting nematode-resistant varieties and maintaining good farm and equipment sanitation. Containment tactics prevent nematodes from spreading to other fields. Chemical control measures are often not recommended due to resulting contamination of soil and groundwater. Therefore, effective management of plant nematodes needs an integrated approach. Keeping in view the vast importance attached to management of nematodes in plants, the present book describes in detail various aspects and types of nematodes at the outset and then delves deep on prevention, containment, biological control, chemical control of plant nematodes. In addition, the book also deals with dynamics of nematode population, diseases and their diagnoses and coordination and stimulation of nematodes so that an integrated approach for their management be applied effectively.
