  abstract = {{P}earl millet ({P}ennisetum glaucum) is a drought -tolerant cereal commonly grown for grain and fodder in arid areas throughout the world. {S}enegalese millet fields are infested with {H}elicotylenchus. {T}he native evergreen woody shrub {P}ihostigma retic ulatumi s widely distributed in sub-{S}aharan {A}frica. {I}ts coppiced residues are used by small farmers as mulch in crop fields. {T}he shrub's nematicidal effect on the spiral nematode {H}ehmohdenchus dihystera was evaluated in a pearl millet pot experiment. {T}he abundance of nematodes decreased by 64% after application of either leaf powder or a pulverized mixing of leaves and stems, suggesting the use of aboveground materials of {P} reficulatum as a potential nematicide. {T}he results show promise for use of a local resotu're. by subsistence farmers in the {S}ahel. {F}urther research is needed on application to fully develop this approach as a biopesticide.},
