OVERVIEW OF REPORTS ON PLANT NEMATOLOGY IN MONTENEGRO UNTIL 2012

Relatively little is known about the role of plant-parasites, and nematodes in general, in relation to crop production in Montenegro. As the main source for this overview, we considered published scientific papers with topics covering nematodes and nematosis from Montenegro. We considered all the extension reports connected with nematodes in Montenegro. Above all, we used data gleaned from a survey of twenty greenhouses in the Zeta-Bjelopavlici valley. This paper constitutes an historical overview by years of publication, papers or reports. As we consider this report to be the very first inventory of Montenegrin nematodes, we describe all the nematodes species or taxons of nematodes that are determinate in Montenegro, by crops. In total, 65 different plant-parasites, nematofiders, bacteriofiders, free living species, and taxons of nematodes have been reported.
