A survey was conducted to determine the frequency and mean densities of plant-parasitic nematodes associated with cotton crop (Gossypium hirsutum L.) after the harvesting season 2008 in Syria. Results showed that twelve genera of plant-parasitic nematodes were found associated with cotton crop roots. The distribution of nematode genera varied between the Syrian governorates, Pratylenchus spp., Meloidogyne spp. and Rotylenchulus infect most cotton fields in all syrian governorates. The distribution was relatively uniform between the governorates. They occurred in 80.7%, 46.6% and 32.95%, respectively, of tested fields with an average density of 137.2, 59.6 and 574.3 juveniles/100 cm3 soil, respectively. meanwhile, the genus Tylenchorhynchus was found in central region only. Rotylenchulus was more prevalent in the heavier soils, but Meloidogyne. was not influenced by soil type. The other nematode genera detected in this survey were less frequent, their frequency of occurrence were for Hoplolaimus (19.3%), Scutellonema (31.8%), Tylenchorhynchus (31.8%), Helicotylenchus (30.7%), Rotylenchus (36.4%), Tylenchus (18.2%), Xiphinema (3.4%).

Field survey was conducted to identify plant nematode genera associated with maize crop during the period August-October 2003. The study was carried out at two locations: Kharabo station (Damascus countryside) and Al-Mraieh station (Deir Al-zowr) in Syria. 36 complex samples were collected from roots and rhizosphere soil; nematodes were extracted by two methods Sieving and Baermann funnel, examined under microscope for identifi cation. Population density and absulute frequency for each genera were calculated. Results of field survey showed the presence of 14 genera of plant parasitic, 4 fungivorous, and 12 omnivorous nematodes in maize roots and rhizosphere soil .
Monthly population fluctuations of plant parasitic nematode population associated with root of cotton in central province fields in Syria were studied over a 2-year period 2008-2009. In both years, the differences between monthly samples were not significant. Average of nematode population density in soil decreased after sowing (May) and near the end of the season (at harvest) in both years and in all of the central province fields, then the numbers of nematode increased slowly again in June to reach a peak at mid-season (July). Ghab region had the higher population density (1180.8 juveniles/100cm3 soil). An increase in numbers of nematode in soil was accompanied with a decrease in number in roots. Negative correlation was observed between average of the initial population density and reproduction factor. Pratylenchus, Meloidogyne incognita, Rotylenchulus, Tylenchorhynchus were dominant nematode species in these fields. Also, the infestation of the first three nematode species was not uniform.
A study was conducted to investigate the presence of root knot nematode (RKN) and other plant parasitic nematodes associated with Syrian most important peach plantation areas. 126 soil and root samples were taken from 63 peach orchards of Ghuta, Z abadani, Yabrod, Syrghaya and Kharabo at Damascus governorate, and Tezeen, Kufr Ton, Khattab, Arzeh, Sheha, Qamhaneh, Balhasen, Rastan, Mhardeh, Salmieh, Sqalbieh and Sharaya at Hama governorate.
A survey to record the genera of nematode associated with wheat in the south region of Syria was carried out during 2002/01. 600 soil samples were collected from the rhizosphere of wheat and examined. Nematodes were extracted, identified and frequ ency was calculated for each genus. Results showed that 17 genera of nematode were associated with wheat. These genera were divided into three groups. The free living nematode consisted of eight genus, the plant and fungi nematode three genus and the plant parasitic nematode group contains six genus.
The research was carried out during 2009 – 2010 in Al – Hasaka – Amoda – to study the effect of cattle manure at the rate of 30 ton/h1, and four organic green fertilizers (Lentil, Vetch, Faba bean and Barely) on plant area and earliness properties of cotton crop compared with chemical fertilizer 400 kg/h1 urea, 83 kg/h1 P2O5 and 25 kg/h1 K2O.The study showed that the cattle manure significantly increased (plant area, lower first fruiting branch, earliness of flowering and boll maturity) when compared with all studied fertilizers, the increase reached (190. 92 Cm2, 0.30 pod, 1.50 day and 0.90 day) respectively. When compared with chemical fertilizer, the legume green fertilizers (Lentil, Vetch and Faba bean) significantly increased the plant area when compared with the control. The legume green fertilizer (Lentil) significantly increased the earliness of flowering (2.73) day and boll maturity (2.21) day when compared with the green fertilizer (Barely). The chemical fertilizer did not significantly affect the earliness of flowering and boll maturity when compared with the legume green fertilizer (Lentil) during the two seasons.
