摘要: The root-knot nematode, Meloidogyne incognita Kofoid and White (Tylenchida: Heteroderidae), is one of the most important plant parasitic nematodes attacking many plant roots. In this paper, the predation and biocontrol efficiency of Blattisocius dolichus Ma (Acari: Blattisociidae) on this nematode were studied. The predation rate and the environmental factors affecting predation rate of B. dolichus on second-stage juveniles of M. incognita (Mi-J2) were studied in experimental arenas in plastic dishes. Both female and male mites had greater capability in consuming Mi-J2, and daily predation rate of female and male mites was not less than 35 and 29.6 nematodes within seven days, respectively. Temperature, nematode density and starvation affected B. dolichus predating on Mi-J2, and when offered 300 nematodes per dish, the predation rate of mites starved for 96 h was the highest at 25 A degrees C, with female and male mites consumed 50.5 and 54 nematodes in 24 h, respectively. The biocontrol of B. dolichus against M. incognita was carried out on potted water spinach Ipomoea aquatic in a greenhouse. The water spinach roots were inoculated with 1,000 Mi-J2 ten days after releasing 100, 200, 300, 400 and 500 mites per pot. Compared to the nematodes-alone control, the number of root-knots of all mite treatments and the number of egg masses of the treatments with 300, 400 and 500 mites significantly decreased. Effect of releasing 500 mites on control of the root nematode M. incognita was best among all mite treatments, reduced the root-knots and egg masses 37.1 and 55.1 %, respectively, but no significant difference was observed compared to 400 mites treatment
