چکیده
Recently, it started gaining more medicinal value because of the antioxidant property because of ascorbic acid and lycopene content (Anon., 2000). Hence tomatoes are called as poor man’s apple (Rick, 1969). Tomatoes offer significant nutritional advantages, including providing a significant source of dietary lycopene, β-carotene, carotenoids, vitamin C, potassium, fiber, color, flavor and antioxidant properties in a low energy dense food (Britt and Kristin, 2011 and Rani and Khetarpual, 2009).

The Effects of Paecilomyces lilacinus on the Pathogenesis of Meloidogyne Javanica and Tomato Plant Growth Parameters
The present study is based on the investigation of a soil hyphomyces, Paecilomyces lilacinus, an opportunistic bio-control agent, in controlling root-knot nematode Meloidogyne javanica on tomato in greenhouse conditions. P. lilacinus, effectively promoted the growth of plants inoculated with M. javanica by suppressing its pathogenesis as root galling by the nematode and egg mass production was ...

Excised tomato roots were examined histologically for interactions of the fungus Paecilomyces lilacinus and Meloidogyne incognita race 1. Root galling and giant-cell formation were absent in tomato roots inoculated with nematode eggs infected with P. lilacinus. Few to no galls and no giant-cell formation were found in roots dipped in a spore suspension of P. lilacinus and inoculated with M. inc...

The present study is based on the investigation of a soil hyphomyces, Paecilomyces lilacinus, an opportunistic bio-control agent. The egg pathogenic fungus Paecilomyces lilacinus is a unique strain with a wide range of activity against the most important plant parasitic nematodes. The aim of this study to evaluate the efficiency of P. lilacinus on parasitic nematodes Meloidogyne javanica on tom...
متن کاملGrowth of Isolates of Paecilomyces lilacinus and Their Efficacy in Biocontrol of Meloidogyne incognita on Tomato.
The potential of 13 Paecilomyces lilacinus isolates from various geographic regions as biocontrol agents against Meloidogyne incognita, the effects of temperature on their growth, and the characterization of the impact of soil temperature on their efficacy for controlling this nematode were investigated. Maximum fungal growth, as determined by dry weight of the mycelium, occurred from 24 to 30 ...

The root-knot nematode Meloidogyne incognita was controlled more effectively and yields of host plants were greater when Paecilomyces lilacinus and Pasteuria penetrans were applied together in field microplots than when either was applied alone. Yields of winter vetch from microplots inoculated with the nematode and with both organisms were not statistically different from yields from uninocula...
