I've known about the French marigolds and grow some every year. Actually Territorial Seed has one called 'Ground Control' that is supposed to be even better for nematodes due to a higher concentration of whatever it is that deals with nematodes. I packed a bed full of them several years ago (they're pretty tall), cut them down as instructed and tilled it all in. Didn't notice much difference. Same with the several beds of mustard greens I've tried.
