The importance, biology and management of cereal cyst nematodes (Heterodera spp.) - A review

Year: 2017

Type: article

Abstract: Cereals are exposed to biotic and abiotic stresses.Among the biotic stresses, plant-parasitic nematodes play an important role in decreasing crop yield.Cereal cyst nematodes (CCNs) are known to be a major constraint to wheat production in several parts of the world.Significant economic losses due to CCNs have been reported.Recognition and identification of CCNs are the first steps in nematode management.This paper reviews the current distribution of CCNs in different parts of the world and the recent advances in nematode identification.The different approaches for managing CCNs are also discussed.
