Biological Control of Plant-parasitic Nematodes (2nd Ed.) Soil Ecosystem Management in Sustainable Agriculture

Langue : Anglais

Auteur :

Couverture de l’ouvrage Biological Control of Plant-parasitic Nematodes

Plant-parasitic nematodes are one of multiple causes of soil-related sub-optimal crop performance. This book integrates soil health and sustainable agriculture with nematode ecology and suppressive services provided by the soil food web to provide holistic solutions. Biological control is an important component of all nematode management programmes, and with a particular focus on integrated soil biology management, this book describes tools available to farmers to enhance the activity of natural enemies, and utilize soil biological processes to reduce losses from nematodes.

Section I: Setting the Scene

1. Ecosystem services and the concept of ‘integrated soil biology management’

Section II: The Soil Environment, Soil Ecology, Soil Health and Sustainable Agriculture

2. The soil environment and the soil-root interface

3. The soil food web and the soil nematode community

4. Global food security, soil health and sustainable agriculture

Section III: Natural Enemies of Nematodes

5. Nematophagous fungi and oomycetes

6. Nematodes, mites and Collembola as predators of nematodes, and the role of generalist predators

7. Obligate parasites of nematodes: viruses, and bacteria in the genus Pasteuria

Section IV: Plant-Microbial Symbiont-Nematode Interactions

8. Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi, endophytic fungi, bacterial endophytes and plant-growth-promoting rhizobacteriaSection V: Natural Suppression and Inundative Biological Control

9. Suppression of nematodes and other soilborne pathogens with organic amendments

10. Specific suppression of plant-parasitic nematodes

11. Integrated soil biology management: the pathway to enhanced natural suppression of plant-parasitic nematodes

12. Biological products for nematode management

Section VI: Summary, Conclusions, Practical Guidelines and Future Research

13. Biological control as a component of integrated nematode management: the way forward

14. A practical guide to improving soil health and enhancing suppressiveness to nematode pests
