Obligate bacterial parasite attacking Heterodera glycines was firstly found from Chungju soybean field in Korea. Diameters of sporangium and central body were 5.6 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ and 1.9 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ under light microscopy (LM), and 3.9 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ and 1.8 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ under transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Endospore showed cup-shaped with smooth-type exosporium without peg-like thickening in polar area under SEM and TEM. Bacteria completed its life cycle in female of soybean cyst nematode after adhering on cuticle of second-stage juvenile. From these results, the Pasteuria found from Chungju was identified with P. nishizawae.

Spatial distribution in soil and seasonal population changes of Pasteuria nishizawae first found in Korea from soybean cyst nematode were studied. P. nishizawae infested in 61% of areas in a soybean field; in an average, about 0.3% of 46 cysts and 17.6% of 9 juveniles per 100 g soil were infested with the bacterium. The highest percentages of spore-attached nematodes were found in July (75%) and between soil depth of 11~20 cm. The number of spores per juvenile was positively correlated with the percentage of juveniles with spores (r=0.4203; P＜0.0133), but negatively correlated with the number of juveniles in soil (r=-0.3499; P＜0.042). P. nishizawae completed its life cycle in cyst and produced 1.7$\times$105 spores per cyst.
