Abstract:A biocontrol bacterium YC-10 was isolated from tobacco and tested for the nematicidal activity.The bacterium culture diluted 1,5,10,20 and 40 times all showed high nematicidal activity to Meloidogyne incognita and Heterodera glycines Ichinohe.After the nematodes were treated with the culture for 96 hours,the lethal rate of the M.incognita attained 100% and the H.glycines Ichinohe over 90%.The results indicated the potential application of biocontrol to nematode.The bacterium YC-10 was identified.
