TERVIGO®
Throughout Australia root-knot nematodes are considered major pests of fruiting vegetables and cucurbits, with annual losses in horticulture estimated to be worth $100-200 million (Stirling et al., 1992). Direct feeding damage and use of carbohydrates, disruption of the root systems architecture, transmission of viruses and root-rot complexes with fungi are the main reasons for crop losses.
