| Abstract | ||
| Separate and joint effects of two nematicides (aldicarb (Temik) and carbofuran (Furadan)), and three insect growth inhibitors (IGI’s) namely diflubenzuron (Dimilin), chlorfluorozuron (IKI) and teflubenzuron (CME-134) against root-knot nematode, *Meloidogyne incognita* infecting tomato were studied in pot trials. Concerning the compound alone, the data generally indicated that aldicarb (10 and 20 Kg/feddan), carbofuran (60 Kg/feddan) and diflubenzuron (200 g/feddan) gave good results in reducing the number of galls and egg masses compared with the control and rest treatments. Regarding the nematicidal mixtures with IGI’s, it was found that the mixture of teflubenzuron + aldicarb (20 Kg) had high significant effect for controlling the root-knot nematode, followed by the mixture of aldicarb + chlorfluorozuron (20 Kg). Mixtures of chlorfluorozuron with carbofuran at 60 Kg/feddan also exhibited good nematicidal effect. While the mixtures of diflubenzuron or teflubenzuron with carbofuran confirmed only a synergistic action. The mixture of aldicarb and chlorfluorozuron in combination at any of the tested nematicides at different rates had an additive effect. | ||
