To identify four cyst nematodes (Heterodera schachtii, H. trifolii, H. glycines, H. sojae) that are economically important plant-parasitic nematodes in Korea, restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) by 8 endonucleases (PstI, VspI, AlwI, RsaI, MvaI, EcoRI, Eco72I, Hinf I) was performed based on sequence difference of mitochondrial DNA cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (COI) gene. As a result, species-specific DNA band patterns by RsaI endonuclease were observed in H. schachtii. The specific patterns was in H. trifolii by 3 endonucleases (VspI, AlwI, Hinf I), and was in H. glycines by Hinf I. While, H. sojae was not digested by 4 endonuclease (VspI, AlwI, RsaI, Hinf I). This study showed that four cyst nematodes could be distinguished using RFLP by 4 endonucleases (RsaI, VspI, AlwI, Hinf I) based on the sequence difference of COI gene.

To survey the incidence of plant-parasitic nematode in strawberry nursery, 117 soil samples were collected from main producing area of strawberry nursery plants in 2016. The incidences of two major problematic nematodes such as root-lesion nematodes (Pratylenchus spp.) and root-knot nematodes (Meloidogyne spp.) were 11% and 3%, respectively. Strawberry nurseries using upland soil either in fields or in plastic-houses showed were higher infection rates of Pratylenchus spp. or Meloidogyne spp. than others. On the other hand, a strawberry nursery using pots filled with bed soil in plastic-house was the lowest infection rate with 0%. Phylogenetic relationships and distance analysis were performed for identification of Pratylenchus spp. and Meloidogyne spp. detected from strawberry nurseries. As the results, they were identified as Pratylenchus penetrans, Pratylenchus vulnus and Meloidogyne hapla. Meanwhile, when nursery plants of strawberry infested with P. vulnus transplanted to pots filled with sterilized soil, P. vulnus was detected from soil in pots as 33% frequency. Thus, P. vulnus can be spread through nursery plants of strawberry infested with that. These studies suggested that Pratylenchus spp. and Meloidogyne spp. were ploblematic nematodes in major areas of strawberry nursery plants and P. vulnus could be spread through nursery plants of strawberry.

Distribution and population of plant parasitc nematodes were investigated using 70 soil and root samples in total collected from six locations in Gyeongbug and Gyeongnam provinces. Among nematodes identified, Meloidogyne spp. was the most prevalent with $91.4\%$ in frequency cf detection. Frequency of detection was $87.1\%$ for Tylenchus sp., $24.3\%$ for Hirschmanniella, $23.3\%$ for Aphelenchus sp., and $20\%$ for Aphelenchoides sp.. Meloidogyne spp. was most abundant from samples collected in Namji and the number of nematodes dectected was 2,104 per $300cm^3$ soil. The number of Meloidogyne spp. detected was 671 from Milyang, 401 from Samrangjin. The number of nematodes was 57 from Samrangjin for Tylenchus sp., 127 from Gupo for Pratylenchus, 26 for Aphelenchoides sp. and 34 for Criconemoides from Samrangjin. Population of Meloidogyne spp. was the highest in Namji and Milyang where pepper and cucumber or pepper and chinese cabbage was cultivated in multiple croppings, however, population of Pratylenchus spp., and Meloidogyne spp. was the highest in Samrangjin where strawberry was cultivated as a single crop. Population in Pratylenchus and Meloidogyne was the highest in Gupo where tomato and chinese cabbage were cultivated alternatively, however, population of nematodes was generally low in Seongju and Yucheon where watermelon-rice or pepper-rice were cultivated in sequence. Meloidogyne spp. and Pratylenchus spp. appear to be economically important nematode species in cropping by controlled horticulture. In this study, 15 species of plant parasitic nematodes were identified.

Nematode-trapping fungi develop trap and consume nematodes are an important part of the subsoil ecosystem and they share a special predator-prey relationship. Four nematode-trapping species, there with adhesive network, Arthrobotrys oligospora, A. sinensis, A. thaumasia and one with constricting ring, Drechslerella brochopaga were collected from soils in Korea and tested their predacity against 12 different nematode species. They were three feeding groups, plant-parasitic (Meloidogyne incognita and Pratylenchus penetrans), fungivorous (Aphelenchus avenae), bacteriovorous (Betlerius sp. and Diplogasteritus sp. in diplogasterid, Panagrolaimus labiatus, P. multidentatus in panagrolaimid, Mesorhabditis irregularis, Pelodera strongyloides and Rhabditis sp., in rhabditid, and Acrobeloides sp. in cephalobid). Results showed that nematode-trapping fungi successfully captured most of nematodes in Petri dish in the group of plant-parasitic nematodes and rhabditids, moderately and variably in other nematodes in 15 days. But it didn't captured A. avenae and Acrobeloides sp. both belongs to c-p group 2. Numbers of Acrobeloides sp. and A. avenae even increased during the test period. The results of this study indicated that nematode-trapping fungi may have specificity among nematode species.

Root-knot nematodes 'Meloidogyne spp' are the most destructive group of plant parasitic nematodes causeing serious losses in vegetables crops and this damages worsened when crops grown under greenhouses conditions. In this sutdy, the distribution and characterization of root-knot nematode species collected from the Souss region of Morocco where vegetables crops intensively cultivated were determined by using both morphological and molecular tools. Out of the 110 samples collected from different greenhouses 91 (81.7%) were found to be infested with root-knot nematodes. Thirty-seven populations of root-knot nematodes were morphologically identified based on perineal patterns as well as molecularlly using species-specific primers. The obtained results indicated that Meloidogyne javanica and M. incognita were identified in 86.4% and 13.5% of the total populations, respectively. The lowest incidence of root-knot nematodes (64%) was found in Toussous, whereas the highest frequencies of 100% and 90% were detected in Taddart and Biogra, respectively. As the majority of the samples have been infested with Meloidogyne species; this indicates that there is an urgent need to provide farmers with a proper control strategy.

This study was conducted to get basic information on the occurrence of plant-parasitic nematodes for the establishment of nematode management strategy in major potato production areas in Korea. Nationwide soil collection was done in 11 areas of Cheju, Yesan, Gimchun, Goryoung, Hong chun, Pyungchang, Gimjae, Milyang, Namwon, Gangnung, and Inje in 2004-2005. Root-hot nematode juveniles(J2) were detected in 30 samples among the 50 samples. The average density was 12-69 J2/100cc soil. Pratylenchus sp., Helicotylenchus sp., Ditylenchus sp., Tylenchus sp., and Tylenchorhynchus sp. were also detected in various locations, however, their densities were very low. Root-knot nematode females were collected from tomato roots inoculated with the potato field soils for PCR-RFLP identification. The females from Cheju, Milyang, and Goryung showed PCR products of 500 bp. And the Dra I restriction enzyme digestions showing 290 bp and 230 bp fragments confirmed their identity as Meloidogyne hapla.

The fauna and the distribution of plant parasitic namatodes were investigated by smapling about five hundred grams of soil around roots of mulberry trees from 929 mulberry fields in Korea. Of fourteen genera detected on mulberry fields, Paratylenchus aciculus, P. projectus, P. morius, Helicotylenchus dihystera, Meloidogyne arenaria were found to be parasitic to mulberry. Among them Paratylenchus species were the most abundant in mulberry fields, but Tylenchorhynchus sp., Aphelenchus sp., Helicotylenchus sp., and Meloidogyne sp. were also observed in high frequency. Meloidogyne species were observed in high frequency in Jeonbuk, Gyeonggi and Jeonnam, Helicotylenchus sp., in Gyeongnam and Gyeonggi, Xiphinema sp., in Jeonbuk and Jeonnam, and Paratylenchus sp., in Gyeonggi, Gyeongbuk, Gyeongnam, and Jeonnam. The growth of mulberry was poor as the increase of density of Paratylenchus sp.
