- Abstract
Phylum Nematoda is one of the most abundant group of metazoans. Root-knot nematodes (Meloidogyne spp.) pose a risk to agricultural crops in the world. The Meloidogyne genus comprises about 100 species and their host range includes more than 3000 plant species. Meloidogyne incognita is one of the most predominant species of this genus damaging a variety of field crops and vegetables. It is very difficult for farmers to diagnose its symptoms due to similarities with nutritional deficiencies. However to overcome this issue, the literature review of researches on the identification, classification, life cycle, symptoms, economic impact and management strategies of M. incognita was planned. The literature review provides an overview and useful information regarding decisions about management of this nematode species in the future.
