1. Nematodes
Root-knot nematode is the serious problems on crops. Root-knot nematodes penetrate root epidermis of crops by second instar nematodes larvae and invade crops roots, causing root nodules. Especially lateral roots and fibrous roots are severely damaged. More seriously, irregular tumors occur on upper part of root knots, which causes thick root system and uneven root surface. Moreover, roots gradually rot and plants die due to lack of water.
With the rapid expansion of flower cultivation area, the number of root-knot nematode has increased year by year, and flowers yield loss has reached 30% to 50%. At the same time, damage caused by root-knot nematodes has aggravated occurrence of soil-borne fungal diseases and some bacterial diseases such as wilt and root rot. Obviously, root-knot nematode has become a major obstacle to the current flower industry.

Meanwhile, mites can use piercing-sucking mouthparts to suck rose juice form different organs, such as leaves, brunches, buds. In this case, mites bring mechanical damage and poison on roses, causing roses growing and flowering abnormally.
