Description	Several biotic and abiotic factors contribute in limiting the yield potential of maize crop qualitatively as well as quantitatively. Among them are disease, insect pests and nematodes. More than 100 species of plant parasitic nematodes have been found associated with this crop in different parts of the world which account for considerable losses. Maize cyst nematode (Heterodera zeae), lesion nematodes (Pratylenchus spp.), root knot nematode (Meloidogyne sp.), sorghum cyst nematode (Heterodera sorghi) and stunt nematode (Tylenchorhynchas vulgaris) cause unprofitable growth of the crop, thus resulting in considerable loss in yield (Srivastava and Sethi, 1986a). Among them, plant parasitic nematodes are responsible to cause 10.2 % losses on maize (Sasser and Freckman, 1987). Plant parasitic nematodes viz., cyst nematodes, lesion nematodes, root knot nematodes, stunt nematode and spiral nematode (Helicotylenchus spp.) has been found to be associated with maize (Patel et al., 2000). These nematodes apart from causing losses by themselves interact with other disease causing agents and adversely affect the quality and quantity of maize production. However, the maize cyst nematode, is considered as one of the most important nematode pests of maize in India and abroad (Singh and Rathore, 2001). Book Name: Maize Crop
