Phytonematodes are responsible for causing significant harm and reducing yields in various agricultural crops. To minimize losses caused by phytonematodes and meet the high demand for agricultural production, it is important to develop effective strategies with minimal environmental impact to manage this biotic stress. Due to the adverse environmental effects associated with synthetic pesticides, it is imperative to use beneficial bacteria, such as Bacillus and Pseudomonas spp., for biocontrol purposes to control phytonematode infestation in agricultural settings. This approach has gained considerable attraction, as there is a promising market for eco-friendly biopesticides based on bacteria that can effectively manage phytonematodes. Furthermore, biocontrol strains of Bacillus and Pseudomonas have the potential to enhance crop productivity by producing various substances that promote plant growth and development. This review aims to explore the role of Bacillus and Pseudomonas spp. in phytonematode management, elucidate different mechanisms by which these bacteria suppress nematode populations, and discuss the future prospects of utilizing these bacteria in agriculture.
植物线虫是造成各种农作物严重危害和减产的罪魁祸首。为了最大限度地减少植物线虫造成的损失，满足对农业生产的高需求，开发具有最小环境影响的有效策略来管理这种生物胁迫至关重要。由于合成农药对环境的不利影响，利用有益细菌（如芽孢杆菌和假单胞菌）进行生物防治以控制农业环境中的线虫侵染是必要的。这种方法引起了相当大的关注，因为基于能够有效防治线虫的细菌的环保型生物农药具有广阔的市场前景。此外，芽孢杆菌和假单胞菌的生物防治菌株有可能通过产生促进植物生长和发育的各种物质来提高作物生产力。本综述旨在探讨芽孢杆菌和假单胞菌在植物线虫管理中的作用，阐明这些细菌抑制线虫种群的不同机制，并讨论在农业中利用这些细菌的未来前景。
