Nematode: Nematode namely Meloidogyne incognita infestation leads to malfunctioning of the roots, as a result of which the above ground parts of plants show stunting and yellowing of leaves. Proper rootstock selection can reduce the damage caused by root knot nematode. Marianna 2624, Myrobalan 29C, and Nemaguard are resistant root-stock. Carbofuran granules are also applied (100–300 g/tree) after the harvest of the crop.

There are several studies focusing on the root knot parasitic nematode, Meloidogyne incognita. For example, tomato roots dipped in AgNPs before M. incognita exposure showed much less infestation (Kalaiselvi, Mohankumar, Shanmugam, Nivitha, & Sundararaj, 2019), displaying the strong nematocidal effect of AgNPs on M. incognita. However, most of these studies were performed in plates with artificial growth media. A recent study using an agricultural soil showed that 100 mg/kg of CeO2NPs enhanced the nematode numbers in soybean rhizosphere, but 500 mg/kg of CeO2NPs inhibited the growth of nematodes (Stowers et al., 2018).

However, besides these microbial pathogens, root-knot nematodes (Meloidogyne incognita) are obligate parasites that infect a wide range of crop species and induce devastating crop productional losses throughout the world (Dong and Zhang 2006). Infection of root-knot nematodes causes a reduction in root functioning such as the uptake of mineral nutrients and water, while it leads to the transmission of viruses that adversely influence crop growth and productivity (Ji et al. 2019; Seid et al. 2015).
