Chemical and Integrated Control of Cyst Nematodes

  • Chapter

Part of the book series: Nato ASI Series ((NSSA,volume 121))

Abstract

Cyst-nematodes, Heterodera spp. and Globodera spp., can be controlled by crop rotation, use of resistant cultivars or by nematicides. Biological control may also be feasible in the future. None of these methods is effective by itself in all situations and control is best when measures are combined. The use of resistant cultivars may lead to selection of virulent pathotypes (Triantaphyllou, 1975; Turner et al., 1983; Young, 1984) or may entail a yield or quality penalty. If the speed of decline of a cyst nematode population in the soil is slow, control by crop rotation may entail a long and unacceptable interval between host crops. Nematicides are expensive and usually toxic, require careful handling and appropriate use, and may not give complete control when used alone. Nevertheless, nematicides are likely to be needed for the foreseeable future as one of the elements in the integrated management of cyst nematodes.
