Interaction of plant-parasitic nematodes with wilt-inducing fungi

  • Chapter

Abstract

Of all the interactions of pathogens with nematodes that are presented in this book, it can be persuasively argued that none are more damaging to crops worldwide as the combined effects of wilt-inducing fungi and plant-parasitic nematodes. The combination of nematode and fungus often results in a synergistic interaction wherein the crop loss is greater than expected from either pathogen alone or an additive effect of the two together. The result for a cultivar sensitive to the interaction can be total crop failure. The problem for the grower is exacerbated by such factors as saprophytic capability, wide host range and long-term survival of the pathogens; thus, productivity of land for what may be a highly valuable crop is impaired for many years.
