Solution

The correct option is D Root
Root-knot nematodes are plant-parasitic nematodes from the genus Meloidogyne. They exist in the soil in areas with hot climates or short winters. Root-knot nematode larvae infect plant roots, causing the development of root-knot galls that drain the plant's nutrients.
Thus the correct option D.
