Abstract in English
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 frequency 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.
