ABSTRACT Cotton (Gossypium hirsutum) is one of the most important textile fibre crops in the world, and cotton seeds are also fed to and made into oil. Plant Parasitic nematodes known as Phyto-nematodes; a threat for the agricultural crops such as cotton. Nematodes are very small, worm-like, multicellular animals adapted to living in water and soil. Some species of are plant feeder and aerial feeder. Different methods such as cultural, biological, botanical etc. are used for the management of nematodes globally. The aim of present review is to evaluate the best method for controlling the nematodes. Botanicals nematicides are the best method for nematodes management because botanical have no harmful impact on human, animals and environment. New, more efficient and ecofriendly nematicides are needed along with machineries for more effective application.

Keywords: Cotton, Nematode, Management Tactics, Botanicals

INTRODUCTION tissues. Nematodes can’t move to great Cotton (Gossypium hirsutum) is the most distances as wings are absent in them thus, can important fiber crop in the world. Most of the crawl only. But for dispersion, use of different nematodes species are found in warmers products most likely machinery, plant regions of the world (Dropkin, Victor, 1980). materials, soil and the transportation of These are found in groups. Plant Parasitic organic materials. Most of the Phyto- nematodes; a threat for the agricultural crops nematodes are plant feeders and feed on the also called as Phyto-nematodes. The world plants while some of the members or species losses in cotton yield by the nematodes has are the aerial feeders (Yepsen, Roger, 1984). been documented to be 10.7 % (Sasser, & Majority of plant-parasitic nematodes are root Freckman, 1987). These nematodes prefer to feeders, associated with plants, completing live in soils or within the plant parts like their life cycles in the root zone.

Thus, good weed naturally occurring substances like methane, management practices should be used to organic acids and hydrogen sulfide increase encounter the nematode population (Robinson, that are toxic to nematodes (MacGuidwin, et al.,1997).
