Nematicide (Velum®, Fluopyram) fungicide (Cebir®, Fludioxonil + Metalaxyl) used as positive controls. Negative control was only plants with nematode fungus inoculation. study set up a randomized plot design 5 replications for each oil. In inoculations, 1000 M. second juvenile larvaes/1ml 3X106 spore/ml FORL seedling. oil applications applied to the soil at dose ppm pot, one day after terminated 60 days, assestment based gall, egg mass severity. Fungal growth development roots found lower all tested than negative but fungisidal nematicidal activity varied. Thyme garlic had highest effect 55.20% this higher nematicide (38.84%) (33.20%) applications. Sage (38.84%), rosemary (33.28%) (38.92%) suppress sesame (22.16%) (22.16%). It has been determined that thyme are good alternatives manage root knot complexes.
