For the biological control of the root-lesion nematodes, Pratylenchus spp., which damage directly and indirectly to the leaf perilla, the nematical effect of three nematode-trapping fungi, Arthrobotrys oligospora, A. conoides and A. dactyloides was evaluated in the field. Three species of Arthrobotrys were isolated from the culture soil of leaf perilla in 1998 and were observed the capture of the root-lesion nematodes, Pratylenchus spp. by adhesive hyphal networks or constricting rings on agar. At 40 days after treatment, the plant-parasitic nematodes and root-lesion nematode populations were approximately increased 3.5 fold in untreated control plot, while the nematode population in fungi treatment plots was similar to initial population. In the A. dactyloides plot, however, the population of plant-parasitic nematodes and Pratylenchus spp. was approximately reduced 65% and 53%, respectively. Thus, the fungus A. dachyloides should provide as biological agent for the control of Pratylenchus spp.

To speed up the extract of endoparasitic nematodes from roots, four extraction methods with or without root-grinding were compared; 1) immersion, 2) immersion + Air, 3) Oostenbrink dish, and 4) Mistifier. The experiments were conducted for nine days by using perilla roots infested with Pratylenchus vulnus. Root-lesion nematodes continuously extracted from perilla roots during the experiments and as much as 3-10% in 9^th days. The total number of nematodes extracted from 2 g of perilla root in nine days were varied among methods (379-1,824 nematodes); the most nematodes were extracted by root grinding + immersion + air (1,824) and the root-grinding + mistifier method (1,349) (p = 0.05). In the first two days of extraction, root-grinding + mistifier extracted the most nematodes (725 nematodes), followed by root-grinding + immersion + Air (555 nematodes), and root-grinding + Oostenbrink dish (421 nematodes). Root-grinding effected as much as 16-108% more nematodes extraction when compared to without root-grinding (p = 0.01).

The female is 433-646 $\mu\textrm{m}$ long: a＝ 29.1-37.5, b ＝ 5.1-6.4, c ＝ 15.0-21.3, vulva(%) ＝ 73.0-85.4. The male body length is 408-512$\mu\textrm{m}$ long: a＝36.1-40.0, b＝4.8-6.7, c ＝17.0-19.0, and spicule ＝ 14.1-18.0 $\mu\textrm{m}$. The stylet is 11.6-18.0 $\mu\textrm{m}$ long and the number of incisures is four. The shape of spermatheca filled with sperm is broadly rounded, oval and quadrangular The shape of tail is narrowly round to subacute.

The plant parasitic nematodes were surveyed from Zoysia matrella, Agrotis palustris, and Poa pratensis at Anyang Benest Golf Club, Dongrae Benest Golf Club, and Gapyeong Benest Golf Club and from A. palustris at Castle Pine Golf Club. Criconema sp., Ditylenchus sp., Helicotylenchus sp., Meloidogyine sp., Pratylenchus sp., Tylenchus sp., and Tylenchorhynechus sp. were separated from unhealthy turf areas. In addition, Tylenchorhynechus dubius was firstly recorded from A. palustris at the green of Castle Pine Golf Club. Meloidogyne sp., Helicotylenchus sp., Ditylenchus sp., and Pratylenohus were separated from Z. matrella, Meloidogyne sp. and Pratylenchus were from A. palustris, and Meloidogyne sp., Tylenchus sp., Tylenchorhynchus sp., Criconema sp., and Helicotylenchus sp. were from P. pratensis. Out of separated nematodes, Meloidogyne was the most serious nematode and widely distributed.

Ditylenchus destructor Thorne 1945 was found to be the causal organism of the new root rot disease of Panax ginseng, which occurred extensively in Dongseong area of Cheolweon-gun, Gangweon Province, Korea in 1982. Thirty-six percent of the investigated fields was damaged due to the potato rot nematode. Infected roots showed brown discoloration of cortex and suberization outside the cambium. Cortex of the severly infected roots became sponge-like in texture and cavity was produced in the central portion of the root. Only the severely infected ginseng plants exhibited sympotoms of sudden wilting of leaves. The number of potato rot nematode in such field soils was $8.5\~222/30g$ soil, while there was no such symptoms on leaves if the number was less than 7.

This study were conducted to assess plant­parasitic nematodes infesting Codonopsis lanceolata. Ten kinds of plant­parasitic nematode gem including Meloidogyne and Pratylenchus were identified in 34 localities of C. lanceolata fields in three provinces in Korea. Meloidogyne, a dominant genus, was found in 97％ localities and showed high average density as 1,700 nematodes per 300$m\ell$ soil. Its average density was 10 times higher in upland field than in paddy field.

This experiment was conducted to study the effect of intercropping system on the population of soil nematodes. The kinds of nematodes inhabitated in peony field were Meloidogyne sp., APhelenchoides sp., Ditylenchus sp., and Xiphinema sp., Meloidogyne sp., was dominant in the experiment field. The population of Meloidogyne sp., was fewer in the peony field intercropped with sesame and job's tear than intercropped with red pepper and Rehmannia glutinosa L. The occurence of powdery mildew was decreased in the peony field intercropped with red pepper and Job's tear.

The study was conducted to investigate the infestation and distribution of plant-parasitic nematodes on Chinese yam (Dioscorea batatas) in Andong, Korea. Root-knot nematodes, Meloidogyne incognita was the most prevalent nematode species which is found from 43 yam fields (81.1%) with high population densities (average of 450 juveniles/$300cm^3$). Other nematodes, root-lesion nematode (Pratylenchus spp.) and pin nematode (Paratylenchus spp.) were less problematic. Density of juveniles (J2) of M. incognita was $10\;J2/300cm^3$ by August, then increased to 274 in September and 624 in October. The highest J2 density was found at the soil depth between 40 and 50 cm ($1,840\;J2/300cm^3$). M. incognita was able to infest yam tuber down to a depth of 70 cm and developed galls outside and brown spots inside. The highest number of females were found at 40-50 cm (79 females/10 cm piece) tuber from the top.

A survey was conducted to find out the major plant parasitic nematode in Chrysanthemum morifolium fields in Korea from May to June in 2005. A genus of Pratylenchus was determined as the most important plant parasitic nematode based on analysis of total 50 samples from 8 cities of chrysanthemum field. Pratylenchus showed 86% occurrence rate and average numbered 1,095 per 200cc soils and 1g root. Five Pratylenchus isolates, 'Muan', 'Masan', 'Tean', 'Gumi', 'Jeongup', were selected for the molecular identification of the species of Pratylenchus, and ITS and D3-28S ribosomal DNA were amplified by PCR. For the ITS, only 'Muan' isolate was differentiated by total 1 kb PCR amplification, which was 200 bp larger than all the other isolates. There was no size variation in amplified D3-28S rDNA and all isolate represented approximately 320 bp of PCR product. Sequence data of D3-28S rDNA were analysed by MegAlign program in DNASTAR software and phylogenetic tree was constructed. Sequence homology was 100% between 'Gumi' isolate and 'Tean' isolate and 'Jeongup' isolate was also close to these isolates by 99.7% sequence homology. 'Gumi', 'Tean' group and 'Jeongup' isolate were determined to be closely related to Pratylenchus vulnus by 96.7% and 96.3% similarity in respectively. D3 sequence of 'Masan' isolate was 100% identical to P. penetrans, and 'Muan' isolate showed 99.7% similarity to P. brachyurus. This result was congruent with the branch divergence pattern shown in phylogenetic tree.
