“…RKN infected plants show yellow leaves, stunting growth, nutrient deficiencies symptoms and secondary infections by other pathogens (Hunt and Handoo, 2009). Yield losses depend on the nematode species exists, nematodes initial population, and cultivated crop species (Ornat and Sorribas, 2008). Sasser and Carter (1985) reported yield losses of 22–30% on tomato due to M. incognita infection.…”

“…An extensive literature deals with problems encountered in the management of plant-parasitic nematode by means of biocontrol agents and, due to the complexity of the soil environment, the number of NFs-based successful biocontrol tests almost equals unsuccessful reports (Kerry 2000;Sorribas et al 2003;Ornat and Sorribas 2008;Lopez-Llorca et al 2008). A few study deals with biocontrol agents present in areas from extensive agriculture or semi-arid climates, i.e.…”

“…are severe crop pests, attacking a broad range of different plant species and causing every year approximately 5-20% food crop or commodity losses, worldwide (Stirling and Wachtel 1985;Whitehead 1998;Koenning et al 1999;Hussey and Janssen 2002;Ornat and Sorribas 2008). Among the different environment-friendly control strategies developed thus far, the use of biological antagonists has received considerable attention, due to the minimal impact expected by their introduction in the soil environment and plant rhizosphere (Ahman et al 2002).…”

Three isolates of Verticillium leptobactrum proceeding from egg masses of root-knot nematodes (RKN) Meloidogyne spp. and soil samples collected in Tunisia were evaluated against second-stage juveniles (J2) and eggs of M. incognita, to determine the fungus biocontrol potential. In vitro tests showed that V. leptobactrum is an efficient nematode parasite. The fungus also colonized egg masses and parasitized hatching J2. In a greenhouse assay with tomato plants parasitized by M. incognita and M. javanica, V. leptobactrum was compared with isolates of Pochonia chlamydosporia and Monacrosporium sp., introducing the propagules into nematode-free or naturally infested soils. The V. leptobactrum isolates were active in RKN biocontrol, improving plants growth with a significant increase of tomato roots length, lower J2 numbers in soil or egg masses, as well as higher egg mortalities. In a second assay with M. javanica, treatments with three V. leptobactrum isolates reduced egg masses on roots as well as the density of J2 and the number of galls. To evaluate the fungus capability to colonize egg masses a nested Real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) assay, based on a molecular beacon probe was used to assess its presence. The probe was designed on a V. leptobactrum ITS region, previously sequenced. This method allowed detection of V. leptobactrum from egg masses, allowing quantitative DNA and fungal biomass estimations.
