    Not AvailablePlant parasitic nematodes are one of the important biotic constraints of oilseed production in India. Safflower (Carthamus tinctorius L.) is one among the least studied crops in nematological perspective. Root-knot (Meloidogyne spp.) and reniform (Rotylenchulus reniformis) nematodes are reported to be potential phyto-nematodes of economic importance on safflower. On the other hand, safflower is proved to contain nematode antagonistic " polyacetylene compounds. Research gaps include survey of safflower growing areas for nematode hotspots, pathogenicity of potential nematode pests and association of nematodes with safflower wilt disease. Use of safflower as intercrop and oil cake as organic amendment are some nematode management strategies using this crop.Not Availabl
