Experiments were conducted in the greenhouse to assess root galling and egg production of three root-knot nematode species, Meloidogyne arenaria, M. incognita, and M. javanica, on several weeds common to Florida agricultural land. Weeds evaluated were Amaranthus retroflexus (redroot pigweed), Cyperus esculentus (yellow nutsedge), Eleusine indica (goosegrass), Portulaca oleracea (common purslane...

to evaluate the effect of metarhizium anisopliae and trichoderma harzianum on root knot nematode (meloidogyne javanica) in tomato, experiments was performed under controlled as well as greenhouse conditions. volatile and non-volatile tests showed that there is no inhibitory effect against every one of each biocontrol agents. on the larval mortality and inhibition of egg hatching, a laboratory t...

biological control of root-knot nematode meloidogyne javanica by application of pseudomonas fluorescens cha0 was evaluated under greenhouse condition. results showed that p. fluorescens (109 cfuml-1) as shoot spray significantly reduced in no. of eggmass and egg per individual eggmass as comparison to control. application p. fluorescens as shoot spray induced systemic activation of peroxidase (...

Background: Root-knot nematodes are known to cause significant damage to eggplants. New approaches by green silver nanoparticles (GSN) are used to control plant-parasitic nematode to avoid chemical nematicide hazards.Objectives: Analyses of the incorporation of different concentrations of nanoparticles on two different algae (Ulva lactuca and Turbinaria turbinata) were carried out. Fureth...

The potential of bacterial antagonists of fungal pathogens to control the root-knot nematode Meloidogyne incognita was investigated under greenhouse conditions. Treatment of tomato seeds with several strains significantly reduced the numbers of galls and egg masses compared with the untreated control. Best performed Bacillus subtilis isolates Sb4-23, Mc5-Re2, and Mc2-Re2, which were further stu...

root-knot nematodes are one of the limiting factors in seedling production and new olive gardens establishment in iran. in view of find resistance cultivars to root-knot nematodes, importance of careful identification of species and races are clarified. in order to investigate root-knot nematodes on olive, soil and root samples of gardens and nursery in gorgan area were collected. in this study...

Soybean breeding lines and reported sources of nematode resistance were evaluated in repeated greenhouse tests for resistance to North Carolina populations of the soybean cyst nematode Heterodera glycines, reniform nematode Rotylenchulus reniformis, and the root-knot nematode species Meloidogyne incognita, M. arenaria, and M. arenaria. Lines from the soybean breeding program in Missouri that ha...

one of the methods for controlling cucumber root-knot nematode is the use of plant extracts that have nematicidal effect. in this research, sweet wormwood and castor bean were selected and their anti-nematode activity has been investigated against cucumber root-knot nematode (meloidogyne incognita) in laboratory and greenhouse. experiments were carried out by using randomized completely design ...
