Record number: 1, Textual support number: 1 OBS
Chemical treatment of the soil is one of the most promising means to control plant-parasitic nematodes. This control method depends upon bringing the nematode-toxic chemicals into contact with the nematode in sufficiently high concentrations. Such contact may be accomplished by percolation of the chemicals in water or a gaseous diffusion of a nematocide in the soil. The nematocide must penetrate the nematode body in order to kill it, either through the cuticle or body openings, or during feeding. 4, record 1, English, - nematicide
