| Abstract | ||||
| Greenhouse experiment on the impact of certain organic amenders i.e. shrimp shell and castor dried leave powders applied singly or in combination with oxamyl (at half of recommended dose) in comparison with oxamyl on the infection of Me/oidogyne incognita to tomato plant cv. strain- 83 revealed that' all treatments tested obviously improved plant growth criteria and significantly suppressed nematode population in roots, number of galls and egg masses. Moreover, the application of shrimp shell powder to tomato plant infected with M. incognita showed the greatest performance of plant growth parameters when oxamyl was added at the half recommended dose, following with plant receiving castor powder with the same dose of oxarnyl over single application tested with values of 50.85% and 44.02% (or plant fresh weight; and 137.3% and 85.1 % for shoot dry weight. respectively as compared to nematode alone. The concomitant treatments using shrimp shell or castor powders plus oxamyl showed belter reduction in nematode population densities, number of galls and egg masses than single application except in the case of eggmasses with castor + oxamyl treatment (63.9%) in relation to oxamyl (65.2%), respectively, as compared to nemstode alone. | ||||
