Root-knot and cyst nematodes cause severe damage to crops throughout the world. Genes conferring resistance against nematodes have been identified in many plant species and several of these have been, or soon will be, cloned. Nematode biotypes that can infect resistant plants have been identified. Investigation of cloned resistance genes and of virulent nematodes is likely to lead to improved host resistance.
根结线虫和孢囊线虫在全球范围内对农作物造成严重损害。在许多植物物种中已鉴定出赋予抗线虫能力的基因，其中一些已经或即将被克隆。已鉴定出能够感染抗性植物的线虫生物型。对克隆的抗性基因和毒性线虫进行研究可能会提高宿主的抗性。
