English. This study was conducted to obtain more knowledge about Vietnamese Musa nematodes and the host-plant reaction of Vietnamese bananas to these nematodes. results showed that Radopholus simili was not founf in wild and cultivated bananas of North and Central Vietnam. Musa nematodes recorded were Pratylenchus coffeae. Meloidogyne spp. under greenhouse conditions, genotypes Yangambi Km5, Toeu Xanh, Tieu Mien Nam, Gros Michel, Com Chua, Com Lua, Man, Hgu Thoc and Gram Nain were possible sources of resistance/tolerance to P. coffeae. No source of resistance to meloidogyne spp. was found. The intensity of root galling was less on the genotypes Man, Tay, Ngu Thoc and Yangambi Km 5. The host-plant reaction to Meloidogyne spp. of eight Vietnamese Musa genotypes,as well as the genotypes FHIA-01, FHIA-02 and Yangambi Km5, was evaluated under field conditions. The genotypes FHIA-01, Ngu Thoc, Tay and Com Lua were found less susceptible to Meloidogyne spp. Th e genotypes FHIA-01, BenTre and Bom were less sensitive to root galling.
