Abstract
Burrowing nematodes, Radopholus spp. are migratory endophytoparasitic nematodes which are prevalent in many tropical and subtropical regions throughout the world. They are highly destructive and damage a wide range of plants by destroying the cortex as they feed in roots (Ducharme, 1959; Ford et al., 1960). Radopholus spp. are considered to be among the 10 most damaging nematodes worldwide (Sasser and Freckman, 1987).
