Feeding types of plant-parasitic nematodes. This article is an attempt to list all agricultural pest nematodes. Species are sorted in alphabetical order of Latin name. A
Crop rotation with legume plants on sugarcane fields can reduce the number of plant parasitic nematodes. However, this management has a temporary effect because a high concentration of these nematodes will be resurged within a year of growing fields. [4] Rotations on wetland rice in Florida is one of the options.
About 90% of nematodes reside in the top 15 cm (6") of soil. Nematodes do not decompose organic matter, but, instead, are parasitic and free-living organisms that feed on living material. Nematodes can effectively regulate bacterial population and community composition—they may eat up to 5,000 bacteria per minute.
Trichodoridae (stubby-root nematodes, trichodorids) is a family of terrestrial root feeding nematodes, being one of two that constitute suborder Triplonchida. [ 3 ] [ 4 ] They are economically important plant parasites and virus vectors.
Mermis nigrescens. Order Enoplida. Suborder Alaimina Superfamily Alaimoidea Micoletzky, 1922. Alaimidae Micoletzky, 1922; Suborder Campydorina Superfamily Campydoroidea Jairajpuri, 1976
Belonolaimus longicaudatus (Sting nematode) is a common parasite of grasses and other plant crops and products. It is the most destructive nematode pest of turf grass, and it also attacks a wide range of fruit, vegetable, and fiber crops such as citrus, cotton, ornamentals, and forage. The sting nematode is a migratory ectoparasite of roots.
Trichodorus is a genus of terrestrial root feeding (stubby-root) nematodes in the Trichodoridae family (trichorids), being one of five genera. [2] They are economically important plant parasites and virus vectors.
Thripinema fuscum is a Allantonematidae nematode that, can naturally decrease the population of Frankliniella fusca, Tobacco thrips. [5] Commonly found in Florida, T. fuscum that infect tobacco thrips have been shown to only affect the reproduction system of the thrips, causing a decrease in thrips over time. [5]
