Pathogenicity and Volatile Nematicidal Metabolites from <i>Duddingtonia flagrans</i> against <i>Meloidogyne incognita</i>

Plant parasitic nematodes, especially parasitic root-knot nematodes, are one of the most destructive plant pathogens worldwide. The control of plant root-knot nematodes is extremely challenging. <i>Duddingtonia flagrans</i> is a type of nematode-trapping fungi (NTF), which produces three...
