Despite its presence in many soybean production regions in Brazil and its high damage potential, soybean cyst nematode (Heterodera glycines), has been efficiently controlled by crop rotation and the use of soybean cultivars resistant to the main nematode races in the country. However, the continuous use of those cultivars can change the nematode populations leading to resistance break down. Few resistance genes availability, associated to the difficulties of inserting multiple races resitance to high productivity cultivares without yield drag tends to worsen the long-term perspectives of nematode anagement. Thus, auxiliary control measures, aiming at minimizing the selection pressure effects, exercised by the resistant varieties on nematode of detection frequency in number of areas and populational density of root-lesion nematode (Pratylenchus brachyurus), has been related in soybean main growing regions in Brazil. Although its potential of damage to soybean crop is still controversial, its poliphagous behavior leaves few options for crop rotation with soybean, and can increase their populations to the economic damage levels in the near future. With the objective of testing the nematicide effect of abamectin as seed treatment, and its interaction with other products on population management of these nematode species, it was carried out greenhouse and field trials, testing three doses of abamectin with or without thiabendazol or acibenzolar-S-methyl addition, for H. glycines and P. brachyurus control, respectively. Although not showing effect on soybean yield, in field tests, the dose of 50 g of abamectin.ha-¹ reduced significantly the number of eggs produced by H. glycines at 30 days after planting, the number of females in the plants roots at 45 days, with reduction in the number of females and cysts recovered from the soil at root zone at 60 days, in the susceptible cultivar. Thiabendazole addition reduced the number of eggs per female at 60 days, but not in other assessments carried out 30 and 45 days after planting. However, the same was not observed for the soybean cultivar resistant to race 14. In all assessment date, that cultivar produced a number of females significantly smaller in the roots and soil and higher yield than the susceptible cultivar. In pot tests under greenhouse conditions, it was observed significant differences between cultivars, besides the treatments made in the seeds, in assessments carried out 30 days after planting. It was not observed significant differences to seed treatments with abamectin or acibenzolar-S-methyl on P. brachyurus populations recovered from soybean roots, neither among the cultivars tested in field nor in greenhouse conditions. It was concluded that seed treatment with abamectin at 50 g. ha-¹ as seed treatment is effective at reducing the H. glycines population and can be used as one more option against the directional selection imposed by the use of soybean resistant cultivars.
