This review examines the use of bacterial and fungal agents as alternative nematicides, confirming their essential antimicrobial effects against plant nematodes infecting Piper nigrum L. The article also discusses the control of plant-parasitic nematodes using microorganisms.
Black pepper (Piper nigrum L.) is one of the oldest spices in the world, additionally, it is highly demanded. Several biotic and abiotic variables pose black pepper production worldwide. Plant-parasitic nematodes play a key role among biotic factors, causing considerable economic losses and affecting the production. Different synthetic nematicides were used for controlling plant nematodes, however the majority of pesticides have been pulled from the market due to substantial non-target effects and environmental risks. As a result, the search for alternative eco-friendly agents for controlling plant-parasitic nematodes populations. Microbial agents are a precious option. In this review the bacterial and fungal agents used as an alternative nematicides, they were studied and confirmed as essential anti-microbial agents against plant nematodes which infected Piper nigrum L. This work examines the most common plant nematodes infected Piper nigrum L., with a focus on root knot and burrowing nematodes, in addition, how to control plant parasitic nematodes using microorganisms.
