- Title
BIOLOGICAL CONTROL OF PLANT PARASITIC NEMATODES.
- Authors
Karakaş, Mehmet
- Abstract
Many different bacteria and fungi have been able to reduce population density of some kinds of plant parasitic nematodes under laboratory conditions but successes at field scale are rare. Most organisms recognized to be promising for biological control of plant parasitic nematodes are quite specific in which nematodes they will attack or have been very diffucult to culture in sufficient quantities to be useful for field application or both. The conditions under which each is most effective are often quite specific and limited. In all, then, commercially effective biological control as a means to reduce the effects of plant parasitic nematodes on laws still appears to be many years away.
