Phytoalexins are antibiotic compounds synthesized in an infected plant in response to infection. Nematodes are capable of eliciting phytoalexins in resistant plants. Resistant lima bean (Phaseolus lunatus) infected by Pratylenchus penetrans produces the phytoalexin coumestrol; soybean (Glycine max) infected by Meloidogyne incognita produces glyceollin; cotton (Gossypium hirsuturn) infected by M. incognita produces terpenoid aldehydes.
