Bonsai is part of export forest products in Korea. Demand for bonsai exports to other countries is growing but the need for quarantine hazards must be eliminated in other to export. Plant parasitic nematode is also an important factor in quarantine. The nematodes were surveyed from bonsai farms in 6 areas of Korea. The surveyed deciduous bonsai plants were Acer palmatum, Zinnia elegans, Ligustrum obtusiflium, Carpinus turcaninowii, and Malus sieboldii. Three plant parasitic nematodes (Hemicyliophora koreana, Rotylenchus blothrotylus and Xiphinema americanum) and three non-parasitic nematodes (Aporclaimellus donghwaens, Egtitus andhricus, and Mesodorylaimus usitatus) were isolated from bonsai. Non-parasitic nematode, Mesodorylaimus usitatus was isolated from all surveyed bonsai trees. Only two species of quarantine nematodes (Hemcylicopora koreana and Xiphinema americanum) were found from bonsai. A. donghwaens and M. usitatus were isolated from root of bonsai tree. However other nematodes were isolated from soil in bonsai trees.

In order to survey the kinds and distribution of tobacco parasitic nematodes, 51 soil samples were. collected from 14 associations under the office of Monopoly of Kyungbuk and Kyungnam province. 1, The plant parasitic nematodes were found $96.1\%$ in the whole sampled. 2. The propotion of infested field of each nematode genera, Tylenchus shown as dominant by $82.3\%$ and next Aphelenchus $72.5\%$, Tylenchorhynchus $58.8\%$, Meloidogyne$50.9\%$, Criconemoides $25.4\%$, Pratylenchus, Hirschmanniella $23.5\%$ in order. 3. The density of genera per localities were as follows Pratylenchus is most abundant in Youngdeog as 43 population, Tylenchorhynchus shown in Jinbo, Tylenhus in Yeongil, Meloidogyne in Kimcheon, Xiphinema in Euisung. 4. Eighteen species belonging to 16 different genera of 11 families were identified, 12 of them are new for Korea as tobacco parasitic nematodes; Aglenchus costatus, Aphelenchus avenae, Criconemoides informis, Ditylenchus dipsaci, Helicotylenchus dihystera Hirschmanniella imamuri, Meloidogyne incognita, Psilenchus hilarulus, Rotylenchus pini, Tylenchorhynchus claytoni, Tylenchorhynchus nudus and Xiphinema americanum.
