In the years 1999 and 2000 research of occurrence and distribution of plant parasitic nematodes was done in the sugar beet growing areas of the Slovak Republic (western, south-western and south-eastern part of the region). Total of 64 sugar beet fields were investigated in areas of six sugar-refineries (Dunajsk Streda, Sered, Trnava, Rimavska Sobota, Surany a Trencianska Tepla). In July and September soil samples were collected from the rhizosphere of sugar beet (at a depth of 0.2 m) alternately from every fifth row. The average samples were obtained by mixing of ten basic samples. Nematodes were isolated from the average soil samples 500 g by the Cobb methods and fixated in FAA (Ditlevsen's solution composed of 500 ml of 95% ethanol, 100 ml of 40% formalin, 20 ml of glacial acetic acid and 400 ml of distilled water). Identified nematodes were divided into two groups - obligate and facultative plant parasitic nematodes. The following indices were used: - the extensity of occurrence of plant parasitic nematodes, expressed by percentage of positive localities from total number of investigated localities, - the occurrence and distribution of economically important species of plant parasitic nematodes, which were evaluated according to percentage proportion from the total nematodofauna in the samples as follows: 0 - 10% proportion - rare occurrence, 11 - 25% proportion - abundant occurrence, 25% proportion - massive occurrence. The most numerous as well as the most distributed genus of plant parasitic nematodes in sugar beet fields was Pratylenchus with its occurrence in 93.8% of localities. In six localities mass occurrence of this parasite was recorded. The genus Tylenchorhynchus had extensity of occurrence 92.1%, the genus Helicotylenchus 64.1%, Ditylenchus 57.8% and Heterodera schachtii juveniles were found on 15.6 percentage of localities. The most abundant population showed the genus Paratylenchus (646 individuals in 500 g soil)
