In this paper, we establish a unilateral global bifurcation result from interval for a class of $p$-Laplacian problems. By applying above result, we study the spectrum of a class of half-quasilinear problems. Moreover, we also investigate the existence of nodal solutions for a class of half-quasilinear eigenvalue problems.

Keywords: Unilateral bifurcation, nodal solutions, half-quasilinear problems, $p$-Laplacian..
