Abstract This chapter focuses on the economic importance, host range, damage symptoms and interactions with other nematodes and pathogens of plant parasitic nematodes on maize in the mid-western USA. The efficacy of some recommended integrated nematode management (INM) strategies are discussed and future research requirements and problems of the future are pointed out.

Abstract Lychee (Litchi chinensis) and guava (Psidium guajava) are both subtropical crops planted in limited areas of South Africa. Lychee cultivation is estimated at around 1800 ha, with many of the orchards being more than 25 years old. This has brought about its own problems, including nematode and fungal infections that together may result in poor vigour, yield losses and, eventually, tree death. This chapter discusses the economic importance, geographical distribution, host range, damage symptoms, biology and life cycle, interactions with other nematodes and pathogens, recommended integrated management, and management optimization of plant parasitic nematodes infesting lychee and guava. Future research requirements and future developments are also mentioned.

Abstract This chapter focuses on the economic importance, host range, geographical distribution, damage symptoms and biology and life cycle of the root-knot, reniform and lesion nematodes Meloidogyne incognita, Rotylenchulus reniformis and Pratylenchus brachyurus infesting cotton in Brazil. Information on their interactions with other nematodes and pathogens, the efficacy of some recommended integrated nematode management (INM) programmes and future research requirements and an outlook for INM in Brazil are also presented.

ENY-056, an 8-page fact sheet by R. Krueger, K. E. Dover, R. McSorley, and K. -H. Wang, introduces homeowners to the problem of root-knot nematodes, the use of marigolds as an allelopathic cover crop for nematode suppression. It describes the mode of action, planting tips, considerations, and frequently asked questions. Includes references and tables showing susceptibility of marigold varieties to root-knot and plant-parasitic nematodes in Florida.
