to understand the relationship between natural physicochemical properties of soil and abundance of citrus root nematode (tylenchulus semipenetrans), a survey was conducted during 2009-2010 in some 37 citrus orchards, in kohgilouyeh va boyerahmad province, iran. distribution of the citrus nematode was determined by collecting random samples from the soil and citrus plant roots, extracting and en...

the effects of poultry manure and cow dung in comparison with the nematicide, carbofuran on the yield of okra infested with root-knot nematode meloidogyne incognita race 2 were investigated. two plots of 17×11 m, each naturally infested with the mentioned nematode, were selected for the study. treatments were poultry manure and cow dung each at the rates of 5 and 10 t ha-1, carbofuran 3g at the...

The influence of different initial inoculum densities of the root-knot nematode Meloidogyne javanica on the growth of sage (Salvia officinalis), root-knot development and nematode multiplication was investigated 90 days after inoculation under greenhouse conditions. With the increase in the nematode initial inoculum densities, shoot fresh/dry weight, shoot/root length and root fresh/dry weight ...

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 ...

efficiency of pleurotus ostreatus and p. sajor-caju as biocontrol agents of the root knot nematode, meloidogyne javanica, was evaluated in vitro and in greenhouse experiments. population of the nematode were prepared and nematicidal effects of culture filtrates of the fungal specieson second stage juveniles of m. javanica were tested. substrates completely colonized by tested fungi as fungal in...

the relationship between initial population density of rice white tip nematode (aphelenchoides besseyi) and yield was examined on oryzae sativa cv. alikazemi. experiments were conducted in greenhouse, micro-plot and field conditions. seinhorst’s model was used to describe the relationship between nematode population density and crop yield. the parameters of the model, minimum yield (m), constan...
