lost each year in South Carolina to PTSL alone (Miller, 1994). Therefore, there is a need for better management practices for the control of peach nematodes. Given the rising cost of pre-plant fumigant applications and the short-lived effects of nematode control by fumigants, there is also a need for the development of sustainable post-plant nematode control strategies in perennial crops including peach (McKenry et al., 2009, 2010, 2011).

Root-knot nematodes are important pests of cut foliage crops in Florida. Currently, effective nematicides for control of these nematodes on cut foliage crops are lacking. Hence, research was conducted at the University of Florida to identify pesticides or biopesticides that could be used to manage these nematodes. The research comprised on-farm, field, and greenhouse trials. Nematicide treatments evaluated include commercial formulations of spirotetramat, furfural, and Purpureocillium lilacinum
