چکیده

Plant residues of broccoli, melon, and tomato with or without addition of chicken manure were used as biofumigants in two pot experiments with Meloidogyne incognita-infested soils. The efficacy of these biofumigants in controlling M. incognita infestation in susceptible tomato bio-assay plants was studied at soil temperatures of 20 masculine, 25 masculine, and 30 masculineC. None of the plant residues was effective at 20 masculineC, and broccoli was more effective than tomato or melon at 25 masculineC. At 30 masculineC all three plant residues reduced M. incognita infestation of tomato to very low levels. Chicken manure was effective in one of two experiments at 20 masculineC, and at 25 masculineC enhanced the efficacy of tomato and melon residue in one of two experiments. At 30 masculineC chicken manure was equally effective as the three plant residues but did not further decrease infestation levels in plant residue amended soils. It is concluded that biofumigation to control M. incognita is unlikely to be effective under cool conditions, that at soil temperatures around 25 masculineC broccoli is more effective than melon and tomato, and that the addition of chicken manure at this soil temperature may enhance the efficacy. At high soil temperatures, of approximately 30 masculineC, the biofumigant source seems of minor importance as strong reductions in tomato infestation by M. incognita were achieved by addition of each of the three plant residues as well as by addition of chicken manure.

Effect of Temperature on Suppression of Meloidogyne incognita by Tagetes Cultivars.

The suppression of Meloidogyne incognita by marigolds differed among six marigold cultivars and five soil temperatures. Tagetes signata (syn. T. tenuifolia) cv. Tangerine Gem and the Tagetes hybrid Polynema allowed reproduction and root galling when grown at 30 degrees C, and should not be used for control of M. incognita at temperatures close to 30 degrees C. Tagetes patula cultivars Single Go...

Use of entomopathogenic nematodes to suppress Meloidogyne incognita on greenhouse tomatoes.

Tomato seedlings in a growth chamber were inoculated with 150 Meloidogyne incognita eggs and 25 infective juveniles (IJ)/cm² of Steinernema feltiae, S. riobrave, or Heterorhabditis bacteriophora. With the exception of seedling roots treated with H. bacteriophora, all seedlings treated with entomopathogenic nematodes had fewer M. incognita juveniles inside roots and produced fewer eggs than the ...

Plant protection with inorganic ions.

Gradients of salts of the specific ion repellents for Meloidogyne incognita -- NH, K, Cl, and NO -- have been demonstrated to shield tomato roots from infestation in soil. The strategy of these greenhouse experiments was to interpose a salt barrier in a soil column between the plant roots and the nematodes. The relative effectiveness of the salts as a barrier to infective second-stage juveniles...
