Abstract | ||||
Bunt's technique (1975), is used for screening nematicides. A simple procedure has been developed using some modification that is suitable for rearing root-knot nematode with minimal chemicals, labors and greenhouse space as required. The different stages of nematode that used as initial inocula (egg-masses or second stage juveniles) succeeded in complement their life cycle and reproduction under irrigation with water or nutrient solution (O.B gm ammonium sulfate 20.5%, 0.1 gm potassium sulfate 47%, and 0.6 gm calcium superphosphate 15% I liter of water). Fertilizer treatment suppressed gall formation in case of inocula with egg- masses or juveniles whereas, such reduction was higher with plants inoculated with egg-masses than these inocula with juveniles. In contrast, fertilizers play an important role in increasing number of laying female. These findings are associated with increasing shoot moisture and decreasing root moisture. The results showed the highest juvenile yield number of egg-massesf plant and percentage of egg-massfgall ratio in case of inoclum with juveniles under fertilizer conditions. This work needs further investigations. | ||||
