Abstract
Abstract More than 68 species of plant parasitic nematodes belonging to 24 genera are associated with potato fields from different parts of the world. Among all, two groups of nematodes are important in potato production in Idaho, USA. These include root-knot nematodes (Meloidogyne spp.) and root lesion nematodes (Pratylenchus spp.). This chapter discusses the symptoms and damage, distribution, host range, recommended integrated management (including chemical, cultural and host resistance methods) and interactions with other pathogens of root-knot and root lesion nematodes.
