Description:	The reniform nematode (Rotylenchulus reniformis) has become a significant pathogen in Brazilian cotton production areas. Recent studies on cotton in the cerrado production region (Brazilian savanna) indicate that the losses will be increased due to this nematode. The growing of cotton after soybean in the same season and the absence of resistant cotton cultivars has limited the management of areas infested by the reniform nematode. Research on identification and introduction of R. reniformis resistance genes into cultivars adapted to cerrado conditions (Brazilian savanna) is highly recommended. Some Gossypium barbadensis genotypes have proved to be resistant to R. reniformis.
