Nineteen pepper (Capsicum annuum L.) cultivars were screened for the resistance to two common species of root-knot nematodes, Meloidogyne incognita and M. arenaria. The tested pepper cultivars showed different degrees of resistance to M. incognita but all were resistant to M. arenaria. The cultivars cv. Gonggongchil, Green No. 500 Pimento, Dahonggeon, Manitta, Shinbaram, Perfecto, and Hanmaeum were resistant to the both species of root-knot nematodes. Therefore, seven selected resistant pepper cultivars are recommended as resistant rotation crops in greenhouses where root-knot nematodes are problematic.

Nine species of plant parasitic nematodes, Aphelenchoides besseyi, Aphelenchus avenae, Criconemoides informis, Helicotylenchus dihystera, Meloidogyne arenaria, Meloidogyne hapla, Pratylenchus minyus and Tylenchus sp. Were found in peanut field in Korea. Chemicals used were; Telon C-17, Mocap 10G and Carbofuran 3G for control peanut parasitic nematodes. All chemicals reduced nematode populations but varied in effectiveness. Telon C-17 was especially effective against Meloidogyne hapla, the principal species on peanut and resulted in significant yield increased than the control. Plant height, number of branches and dry weight of peanut were increased over the nontreated control by chemical soil treatments.
