Summary – The encounter between Meloidogyne species and tomato is many centuries old. Meloidogyne species are known to cause
high levels of economic loss worldwide in a multitude of agricultural crops, including tomato. This review was initiated to provide an
overview of the damage potential of Meloidogyne spp. on cultivars of tomato (Solanum lycopersicum), and to compile the different
studies done on the management of Meloidogyne spp. on tomato with particular emphasis on the Mi resistance gene. Numerous studies
have been conducted to assess the damage potential of root-knot nematode on various tomato cultivars; its yield loss potential ranges
from 25 to 100%. A range of management options from using synthetic nematicides to soilless cultures have been tried and are available
for managing Meloidogyne spp. Resistant commercial cultivars and rootstocks carrying the Mi gene have been used successfully to
manage Meloidogyne incognita, M. javanica and M. arenaria. However, virulent populations have been detected. Relying on a single
root-knot nematode management strategy is an outdated concept and different management options should be used in an integrated
management context by considering the whole system of disease management. In future management of Meloidogyne species, care
must be taken in directly extrapolating the tolerance limit determined elsewhere, since it is affected by many factors such as the type of
initial inoculum and physiological races of Meloidogyne spp., environmental conditions, types of cultivars and experimental approaches
used.
Keywords – damage potential, durability, management, Mi gene, nematode control, pest management.
