Abstract

This investigation was done to explore the effect of bio-products including abamectin, emamectin and biosal on the different stages (J2 to adult) of root-knot nematode (Meloidogyne incognita). The effects of three bio-products on development of J2 were investigated by inoculating 15-days old seedlings of tomato with 1,000 J2. Plants were harvested after 7, 17 and 35 days after inoculation. The invasion and J2 development was assessed at 7, 17 days of harvest whereas 35 days of harvest provided the effect of bio- products on reproduction of M. incognita. Minimum invasion and development of M. incognita on roots of tomato plants treated with abamectin were observed followed by emamectin and biosal as compared to control.
