AbstractThe sources and genetics of resistance of cereals, root and tuber crops, banana and plantain (Musa spp.), lucerne, rootstocks (Prunus spp., Rosa spp, Citrus spp.), strawberry (Fragaria spp.) and raspberry (Rubus spp.), and other plants to migratory endoparasites belonging to the genera Pratylenchus and Radopholus are discussed. General considerations and protocols for screening crop resistance to these nematodes are also presented.
