Their attacks affect the productivity by reducing the amount and the caliber of the fruits. Chemical control is widely used, but biological control appears to be a better solution, mainly using microorganisms to reduce the quantity of pests infecting crops. Biological control is developing gradually, and with time, more products are being marketed worldwide. They can be formulated with bacteria, viruses or with filamentous fungi, which can destroy and feed on phytoparasitic nematodes. To be used by the farmers, biopesticides must be legalized by the states, which has led to the establishment of a legal framework for their use, devised by various governmental organizations. specialized Biopesticides Meloidogyne spp. Filamentous Fungi Homologation Production Formulation 076 084 57 6 831-841 2014 1516-8913 https://www.documentation.ird.fr/hor/fdi:010063143 10.1590/s1516-8913201402540 1516-8913 [F B010063143] https://www.documentation.ird.fr/hor/fdi:010063143 https://www.documentation.ird.fr/intranet/publi/2015/01/010063143.pdf Accès réservé (Intranet de l'IRD) IRD - Base Horizon / Pleins textes 2015-02-02 2017-08-23 fdi:010063143 fre
