description: Identification of sources of resistance in cool season legumes to cyst (Heterodera spp.), root-knot (Meloidogyne  spp.), and stem nematode (Ditylenchus dipsaci) is generally based on number of cysts on roots, root-knot nematode  induced gall index, and stem nematode reproduction in shoot tissue, respectively . Various levels of resistance to cyst  nematodes have been detected in chickpea and pea. Resistance has also been identified in chickpea, faba bean, and  pea to the root-knot nematodes . Broad based durable sources of resistance to plant parasitic nematodes are required .  Basic research is needed to develop transgenic plants with resistance based on hatch stimulants, inhibitors, toxins,  or repellents found in antagonistic rhizosphere microorganisms . Selection of genotypes that favor development of  beneficial rhizosphere microorganisms or root endophytes that increase the plant resistance to nematode infection  deserves attention
