Abstract:Plant-parasitic nematodes are a major problem for horticultural production, causing significant economic losses. Chemical nematicides are a common nematode control strategy but can negatively impact the environment and human health. In this review, we provide an overview of the use of fungi for the biological control of plant-parasitic nematodes in horticultural crops. Fungal bio-control represents an alternative, environmentally friendly strategy for managing nematodes. The use of fungi for the bio-control of… Show more
