Biology, Taxonomy, and Management of the Root‐Knot Nematode (Meloidogyne incognita) in Sweet Potato
Advances in Agriculture, Volume 2021, Issue 1, 2021., 2021 Sweet potato is the seventh‐ranked food crop produced after wheat, rice, maize, potato, barley, and cassava in the world. It is the most important root tuber crop in temperate, subtropical, and tropical areas of the world. It is grown for food, income‐generating, and jobs for farmers and retailers. The important nutritional substances of sweet potatoes

Biological Control of Root-Knot Nematodes (Meloidogyne spp.): Microbes against the Pests
Acta Agriculturae Slovenica, 2013 Root-knot nematodes (Meloidogyne spp.) are important pests of many cultivated plants. Recently, the most efficient chemical control products (e.g. methyl bromide) have now been restricted due to their toxic characteristics.

Quantifying the economic cost of invertebrate pests to New Zealand’s pastoral industry
New Zealand Journal of Agricultural Research, Volume 62, Issue 3, Page 255-315, September 2019., 2019 ABSTRACT The invertebrate pests most commonly affecting New Zealand’s pastoral‐based production in ‘average’ years cause losses of between $1.7B and $2.3B p.a. of which up to $0.9B occur on sheep and beef farms and $1.4B on dairy farms. The native scarab grass grub is the most costly pest causing losses of $140–380 M on dairy farms and $75–205 M on ...
