Abstract
The use of resistant cultivars has been the mainstay of root-knot nematode management in soybean. Genes which impart a quantitative resistance to Meloidogyne incognita have been incorporated into several cultivars of maturity groups VI – VIII. Though some yield losses are experienced by these cultivars when grown in heavily infested soil, the additional use of nematicidal soil treatment is not generally practiced. Management by crop rotation is complicated by the extensive host ranges of the causal organisms, which also include M. arenaria, and M. javanica. However, the declining economics of soybean production over the last decade has encouraged growers individually to adopt rotational cropping practices. This should favor the management of the latter two species, against which resistant cultivars have not been adequately developed.
