Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) are obligate root symbionts that can protect their host
plant against biotic stress factors such as plant-parasitic nematode (PPN) infection. PPN …

Plant parasitic nematodes (Root-knot nematodes, Meloidogyne spp.) are rounded worms,
microscopic, and cause many agricultural economic losses. Their attacks have a direct …

Soil organisms are considered drivers of soil ecosystem services (primary productivity,
nutrient cycling, carbon cycling, water regulation) associated with sustainable agricultural …

In Europe, root-knot nematodes are increasingly important. Out of more than 90
Meloidogyne species currently described, 23 have been found on the continent. In the …

The use of organic soil amendments, such as green manures, animal manures, composts or
slurries, certainly has many advantageous aspects for soil quality and is suggested as a …
