Résumé:

Globodera rostochiensis and G. pallida are some of the most successful and highly specialized plant parasitic nematodes and among the most regulated quarantine pests globally. In Switzerland, they have been monitored by annual surveys since their first detection in Swiss soil in 1958. The dataset created was reviewed to produce an overview of the development and actual status of potato cyst nematodes (PCNs) in Switzerland. Positive fields represent 0.2% of all the samples analyzed, and their distribution is limited to central-west and western Switzerland, suggesting that new introduction of PCNs and the spread of the initial introduced PCN populations did not occur. In this way, the integrated management used in Switzerland appears to be effective. However, the increasing availability of potato varieties with resistance to G. rostochiensis and the limited availability of varieties with resistance to G. pallida, together with other biotic and abiotic factors, have promoted changes in the dominance of either species. Consequently, an extended monitoring program is of interest to Swiss farmers, to avoid favoring virulent traits that could be present in Swiss Globodera populations.
